Well, you've had answers to your initial problem.

Here's a subtler trap with random streams....

#declare S1 = seed(32534);
#while(1=1)
    #declare S2 = seed(rand(S1))
    object{foo translate y*rand(S2)}
#end

Here, you get some variation for rand(S2), but not a lot. This is because the
seed to S2 is always in the range 0 -> 1, which returns a random stream with
very little variation.
