Newton’s gravity vs Relativity is a matter of precision. Newtonian mechanics is a limiting case of general relativity that works excellently within known bounds. PRNGs, by contrast, can fail categorically, not just in precision. A PRNG with subtle correlations doesn’t just give you a slightly less accurate answer, it can produce systematically biased results that look perfectly fine until they don’t. The failure modes are qualitatively different.
