That's a good point, I guess you have to also randomly choose the humans?

I don't think so, if they were all lined up in alphabetical order and you took them in pairs from that ordering, it would be just as good.

But then you'll always get the same output from the same set of humans. It's a PRNG where the set of humans is the seed.
