While technically true, you might not have access to the seed, so in 
practical terms it's a bit of distinction without a difference.

For instance, in `/dev/[u]random` the seed is kept internally by the OS, 
and I don't think you have access to it.... and even if you had, you 
wouldn't want to re-implement the kernel's PRNG, right?
