> You need quality entropy, but only up to the quantity of the security level of your system.

What do you mean when you say entropy quality? As I said before, entropy is measured in bits. If you have two coin tosses that are correlated, you don't say "I've got 2-bits of low quality entropy". You simply have strictly less than 2-bits of entropy.
