Measure the flakiness instead of taking CI's word for it. Twenty runs put the rate near one in four, which is a coin the test is tossing rather than an environment problem.

Read the library. _shuffled calls random.shuffle on the process wide stream, and retry_delays calls random.uniform on it, so neither caller can pin a result.

"""Sampling helpers for the request auditor.
The auditor keeps a small sample of production requests for a human to review, and it
retries its uploads with exponential backoff. Both are random on purpose. A sample that
always picked the same requests would keep missing whatever the last sample missed, and a
backoff without jitter puts every retrying client back on the wire in the same
millisecond.
Randomness that reaches production has to stay random. Randomness that reaches a test has
to be controlled by the test, which is not the same thing.

Read the test before changing it. It asserts tenant coverage, which is a real property of a draw and not something to weaken, so the draw has to become reproducible.

Results that cannot be reproduced are not results. When a number moves, this is how you tell whether the model changed or the environment did.
