Sadly, I think both airline and media who repeated the random selection narrative, don't know what the word means, rather than being dishonest about it. Random is what a computer does, i.e. some metric they do not understand and cannot predict is to them random. They only understand it in terms of some really imperfect examples or metaphors that totally cheat them out of what randomness really is.
So now if you want to talk about crypto with them, it's instantly so problematic you'd just have to back the train way up. It's like the Feynman magnets video. Pointless without the necessary basic understanding.
