Being a firm believer in Quantum Mechanics, I believe that if you
can't tell the difference, you can do anything you want. I think you

"commands" as saying "your implementation must produce the same values
as if...", not "your implementation must act in exactly the following
way...".
Perhaps a clear statement of this should be placed at the front of the
document so that those who don't understand Quantum Mechanics can understand
Scheme.
