If you don't know what the PRNG (DRBG more appropriately) is for, you didn't watch the tech video.

Video is not suited for technical details.

It's not easy to quote / excerpt, to quickly refer back to previous (or later) parts, to take more time over parts that need it, etc; not the way text is.

My default reaction to "you'll understand if you just watch the video", is that someone is peddling bullshit and doesn't want me thinking too deeply.

It's also a really convenient way to deflect when, and this is just a hypothetical here, you were wrong and jumped to conclusions.
