: You make the conclusion sound so obvious... unfortunately, it isn't. In
: systems as complex as an AI (and systems much, much less complex),
: undesigned behaviours are often discovered. These are called
: "emergent behaviours."

Indeed, and Rampancy itself may be such a behavior from our perspective. However, Durandal is far superior to any human in terms of his predictive talents, and apparently he's isolated a definite cause for Rampancy...namely, this prior "chance discovery" made by humanity.
