What do you mean by "true randomness"?
I have no problem with that notion, though. I use it in the sense of
total arbitrariness. I illustrate this by giving my favorite binary
true random sequence: it is
1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111...
It is the "true random sequence" of the superlucky guy (or super
unlucky , in case he bet on zero!).
But for the FPI, for example in the iterated WM-duplication, all you
need is too realize that the the vast majority of 1p experienced
experience is algorithmic-incompressible. That is random enough.
