With determinism you're not wrong. The problem is that you'd need to make sure all your seeds, temperatures, and other input parameters are exactly the same, and importantly that all context is cleared. But people don't do that. And I'm not sure every if even any provider lets you set those parameters.

Even with temperature set to zero, I believe due to FP operations not being commutative you may still get non-determinism, so what I am talking about (as mentioned, very pedantically) is mostly the theory.
