Imagine someone spilled the contents of a large trash in a pile on the floor. Now it is your task to create an exact replica of this pile.
There was absolutely nothing special going on when that pile of trash was generated, and yet it is impossible to replicate.
Sure, you can create similar piles of trash by spilling other trash cans on the floor, or you can carefully arrange banana peels an half-filled soda cans to create a pile that looks similar from the surface. But generate an exact copy? No way.
