This reminds me of a D&D dice website that went into way too much detail about how they weren't fair and I remember photos of them stacked on top of each other to show the variations in manufacturing.

Reminds me of an encounter on BoardGameArena where the top ranked 7 Wonders Duel player complained there was a randomization bug (the Great Library never offered the science progress token). I thought he was raging (who hasn’t heard a poker player complain about bad luck) but turns out the developer checked the code and did in fact find this was a bug!
