It's also worth noting by the way, there is no practical reason to be concerned about modifying mods to do more than they say they're supposed to. Modifying data.wak is very easy, the game gives you tools to package mods right into it directly, you only need noita.exe and notepad to change the rules of Noita as you please. Something like modifying the weights of some useful perks or spells would be essentially undetectable without lots of footage and statistical evidence, a la the Dream incident, which is basically impossible to enforce. I will say that I gave up trying to get the seeded any% WR specifically because chaotic polymorphine grinding was one of the more soul-draining experiences of my life, and while it has considerably worse odds than acceleratium, making concessions in true randomness in order to make speedrunning actually fun is a reasonable path to take imho.

I'm all for more seeded subcategories as a completely unbiased participant.

Jokes aside, while I understand the motive for avoiding tedious resets to get a relatively common event which is essentially necessary for good times, what's to stop me from making a mod that resets until I get one of the 15712 seeds that has a Sampo laying around in mines and then moseying on up to the mountain altar with it? While the lua script would have to check quite a few more seeds, it would be nominally "random seed". Obviously this is a slightly hyperbolic case but we really have to be careful with the continued automation of random seed setting. IMO a rule that random seeds really have to be generated by the game on its own (i.e. new runs have to be at least 1 second apart since that's the smallest interval that gives a different seed) would be reasonable. This effectively prevents going through thousands of seeds in an otherwise-impossibly short amount of time. An in-between category between seeded and random that allows for seeding just "common" occurrences (decided completely arbitrarily) feels odd imho.
