Yes there is. Not every system has the need or the resources to maintain a secure random sequence. You may also want a reproducible pseudo-random sequence in generative code that logs the seeds. Because of the misguided attitude that nobody needs these features, everyone who does need them has to roll their own now.

What does such a system look like this decade, that needs random numbers but can't easily implement something like AES? > You may also want a reproducible pseudo-random sequence in generative code that logs the seeds. Because of the misguided attitude that nobody needs these features, everyone who does need them has to roll their own now. I don't know what difficulty you're referring to. Basically every CSPRNG can be seeded easily and you can log the seed.
