The thing is that the lottery is not a truly random number generator. It's a physical process implemented by humans, subject to design flaws. So how can we detect whether or not the random number generator we've built has any flaws? By using sound Bayesian reasoning and experiment. If we run the process and it gives us the same number 100 times in a row in the first 100 results, we should adjust our priors and assume what we've built is not in fact a random number generator.
