I think I and andreareina are using the definition from the website. Yes, I think other people are using other definitions, which is causing confusion.
> Wouldn't the second category be more less CSPRNG?
The website says PCG is "Challenging" to predict and ChaCha20 is "Secure". So I think this means that PCG isn't a CSPRNG, but still is harder to predict than Mersenne Twister.
But is this useful at all? I don't know. This thread started by andreareina asking that exact question: "What applications require unpredictability where you wouldn't go full csprng?" People immediately then misunderstood the question because they misunderstood how the word unpredictability is being used.
A player not being able to mentally predict enemies and not seeing visible patterns sounds like it might fall more under the website's definition of "Statistical Quality".
