## Good fits

- Break a tie between several otherwise acceptable actions.
- Apply positive relative weights when some options should be more likely than others.
- Sample one item from a bounded set as part of a larger workflow.

Every successful call is a new random event. Retries are not idempotent and may be charged again. Do not use the service for gambling, security tokens, consequential medical, legal, or financial decisions, or stable experiment assignments. Results are not independently verifiable or provably fair.
