No it's not. It provides an explanation of how the world can be
completely deterministic but to you as an observer within it appear
truly random, so that not even God would be able to tell you what you
will experience next.
That seems to me to be a very good case of something being "in-principle
unknowable". If it is not "in-principle unknowable", the onus is on you
to spell out the principles and circumstances in which the time of the
radioactive decay of a particular atom is knowable in advance.
