@smartnut007, @mateiz, if we should not use nanoTime as a seed, we should
not pass none to random.seed(None). random.seed(None) will use time.time().
As reply for your very first comment, I think consistency is important. But
it's just my opinion,
others may disagree with me. You should do what you think is right.
