Which is fine. Not everything needs SecureRandom. I'd wager more code using random numbers is for A/B tests, sample data generation or video games than people implementing crypto.
I get that security people don't want non-secure RNGs to exist out of fear that someone might try implement security related functions out of them but why should I care if I just want to choose between 3 types of enemies this wave?
