Well, this quote is now 16 years old, and judging by the current state and the trends of the past few years (GenAI for scientific processes, the pipeline-ization of data science), I think his prediction was spot on. Statistics did have significant spotlight on it for 10 years, but now it diminishes.

I don't set a seed, I just run my chains long enough so any difference across runs is smaller than a tolerance threshold under which differences are insignificant 😎

Just played it now for the first time. Was quite fun.
I'm not a wordle guy, but maybe having this all-or-nothing metric as the _only_ score may be frustrating? you have the full statistics, does everyday have fail rates in the 90s? You may consider a more continuous RMSE-like score to complement it.
