One clue that you can't is that magicians teach themselves to flip a
coin so that can always catch it the same way it started. That shows
it's not quantum randomness.

That only shows that in some cases its not random. But when it is
random, it can only be due to quantum fluctuations as there is no
other form of randomness in nature.
There's no other source of /inherent/ randomness. There's plenty of
randomness from ignorance and there's randomness from the past light cone.
