pro tip, you are using a phone, the carriers know where you are. In a call or not. Admittedly sending the GPS location (or other) adds to the footprint they have of you, but get real, 30 sec for the intelligence…
You both rather miss the point that the op ref talks of making illegal states unrepresentable. An objective that either depends on only handling simplistic data or ... most likely is impossible.
Godel's incompleteness theorem indicates illegal states as unrepresentable is impossible at a fundamental level.
So, you want to use the random function but want a constant output. Simpler to just use a constant array and not impose your bias on a corner case interpretation on random.
