Quantum effects don't. There are rules but results are within range random.

That's not proven yet. Random behaviour might be due to undiscovered inherent properties.

But even if there are random things, are they thus irrational? Or just unpredictable? Is today's lottery number wrong in some way?

Quantum mechanics works the same way every time. Being random doesn't mean they're not working the same way every time, the distribution never changes.

The poster I was answering to was using examples like "numbers add up the same every time" which is not the case for quantum effects.
