that argument definitely has some truth, but it's worth considering that playing a randomizer is a very different experience than speed running the original game as mxwsn said. I've played a few randomizers and it's a whole lot of fun to dynamically route based on evolving probabilities - vs performing a known route at a hyperoptimized level. randomizers reward adaptation, as well as gameplay and game knowledge that may not matter for the speed run
