Doesn't seem all that non-deterministic. I tested the vba.html example multiple times and it always said it was VBA. I added a space between </HEAD> and <BODY> and it correctly picked HTML as most likely but with a low confidence. So I think we can say it's sensitive to mysterious features, not that it's non-deterministic. Still leads to your same conclusion that you can't anticipate the failures. But I don't think you can with traditional tools either. Some magic numbers are just plain text (like MZ) which could legitimately accidentally appear at the beginning of a plain text file, for example. |
