I don't know what the confusion is. It's not based on observations, it's based on exact statistical analysis.
It's like saying you can pick 1-2 on a dice, or 3-6. Which would you choose? You pick 3-6, because it's more likely to win if someone isn't screwing with the dice.
EP: address what? It's meant to be randomly placed initially. That's the point. If it isn't, I'm not talking about the same game as you.
The door he opens for you, however, is not random.
What does random even mean?
