> Algorithms are only algorithms because they're deterministic; if they're not then you've made some form of a ML model. Not at all, many classical algorithms and data structures are and must be probabilistic. Classical quicksort/quickselect is the best example. I think it's just a case of the case being easier to argue this way.
