The way I read it was that it is surprising that it is there at all.
Apparently a lot of android devices don't have one, and don't have time to collect pseudo random data for their software rng to make secure certificates when you boot it for the first time, which posses a security risk for android devices.
That's how I read the article in relation to recent news.
