The current trend in the random discussion (see https://haypo-notes.readthedocs.io/pep_random.html and the issue #26839) is more to use weak entropy to start Python (hash seed and random constructor) and os.urandom() blocks until the kernel collected enough entropy. In this case, such information is no more needed. So I close this issue, superseded by the issue #27266.
