> Think about execution time, for example.
Sure. A good example. Execution time – more accurately, execution speed – isn't a property of software. For example, as you point out yourself, you can alter the execution speed without altering the software. It is, indeed, an input.

Well, we know how to pass them in non-deterministically. That's how software is able to do anything.
Perhaps one could create a simulated environment that is able to control all the inputs? In fact, I'm told there is a company known as Antithesis working on exactly that.
