just wanted to add that the JEP says: "SplittableRandomGenerator extends
RandomGenerator and also provides
methods named split and splits. Splittability allows the user to spawn a
new RandomGenerator from an existing RandomGenerator that will generally
produce statistically independent results."
which adds to my suspicion that this might be a api bug.
