OTOH the beauty of loops and random generators is that following scene

    #local g=seed(0);
    #local c=0;
    #while (c<1000)
        sphere{ 1000*<rand(g),rand(g),rand(g)> rand(g) }
        #local c=c+1;
    #end

is minimal but complex. So perhaps (just guessing) with some effort you could
minimize scene.
