Technical Details section of help explains "we buffer batches of coin flips in advance to ensure a responsive experience. Your coin flips are always drawn directly from a quantum circuit, though no necessarily in real-time."

Am I wrong, or would that mean this “quantum flip” can be biased by race conditions, round robin, CDNs, things like that?
In reality, it's a room full of interns flipping quarters and averaging their results in "real time"
yea its not truly random. not sure how predictable the batching or caching is
