// WELL should provide us reasonably 'secure' and, more importantly, fast RNG for
// general purpose use. It isn't fundamentally broken unlike MT, I dont think 512
// or 16 samples is going to break anything unlike MT with 624 or so. WELL has
// demonstrable better statistical properties and 32-bit performance. I think it 
// makes for a better defacto backend than MT. Generic xorshiftrots might be alright
// for improved speed at the cost of what little reliability PRNGs have.

// Redunced seed entropy should not matter to the extent that MT can make up for it
// WELL is used in the fast rng backend, and i feel as though it would be unreasonable
// to go above UInt64 seeds. For toy purposes, U32/64 seeds are probably fine. Treat
// WELL like MT without 624 prediction and performance issues.
