"I have a really hard time believing that [...] others haven't noticed this
rather glaring flaw in the code."
*shrug* Easy or hard for you to believe, nevertheless this same quote-unquote
"flaw" goes back to Python 1.5 or older. Whether that makes it a flaw, a bug or
a feature, I don't know.
The documentation does say:
"Keyword arguments should not be used because the
function may use them in unexpected ways."
https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.randrange
so I'd suggest that the behaviour of randrange(10, seed=2) is currently
considered undefined.
