To me the situation seems fairly simple in that the world is still different afterward than it was before. In terms of consistency also, if a language guarantees purity (like elm or haskell), it seems a bit silly to equivocate about that.

That's only true if you use seeds, which as I mentioned is theoretically unecessary and could be abstracted away in practice.
