That's not entropy that is data. You fundamentally can't increase entropy, hence why they wanted to use a PRNG with a big internal state so they can put more entropy in.

So if your argument is that you want a big entropy PRNG to get more possible outputs then the generation rate can't be the problem because that's entirely dependent on you being able to generate a big enough seed.
