While this is true (and important) for the applications you have in
mind, there are other applications. For instance, in cryptography
there is often a need for true random numbers, or as close as you can
get.
I'm not sure what the whole discussion is about, anyway. Is it about
dealing with random numbers practically in Haskell?
