Agreed, but it sounds like this project was for fun and to make users happy, not to actually guarantee true randomness.
I would wager the amount of wear on the dice, and small flaws in each individual die, produce a non negligible bias to the rolls that could be avoided by using cryptographicly secure random sources.
If they start using these dice to generate cryptographic keys, I'll run for the hills, but so long as they are only used for playing board games over the internet, this is really cool.

This just gave me a flashback to making cryptographic keys long ago, and adding in entropy by typing randomly on the keyboard. What a time to be alive.
