I'm one of the maintainers of Faker, so hopefully I can help remedy any situation we inadvertently created.

I believe is what you're looking for. The issue, as I recall, is that all of Faker is random, so what does it mean to have a `random` module namespace. We moved it out of a hope for improved clarity.

Oh shit, youre right. Thanks for that. I think I saw that method but didnt realize it is implicitly random (like an idiot)
Maybe there is good reason for this. I'm not real familiar with this space. It's not so hard to implement something yourself. But I suspect the description of "missing js randomness library" may have some merit.
