But why would it vary in ways that are consistent run to run on one machine, but not consistent with the same process executed on another similar machine?

Every datapoint reduces the number of people it could belong to. CPU + browser + browser version + OS + major OS version can narrow it down by a lot.

Then add resolution, IP address location (which VPN they use is also a datapoint), which time they are active at, etc. and you can get a good almost-unique identifier.
