This is a reasonable, common quibble when starting property based testing.
A failing test should be straightforward to turn into a simple checked example - most good libraries have extensive simplification steps that try and boil failing examples down to the minimal example that still causes the test to fail.
But this is only necessary if repeated runs of the property based tests don't reproduce a failure*. For me, they have.
