That’s why you add salt.
It would be weighted. However, if it’s “Pretty close” then it’d actually be quite random. It’s got enough mass that a little bit of variation can be ‘discounted’. Obviously, there will be favouring of numbers, but I think you could likely get it ‘fairer’ than some cheap 20c dice you bought from the markets.
I’m thinking the geometry is probably more an issue than weight distribution. Given the results of the 10,000 roll d20 experiment with “regular” and “precision” plastic dice, this thing is going to be seriously biased. But I’d love to see a min. 500 roll test.
If we’re an evil, OCD DM, I wonder if I’d buy a bunch of dice, test them with a computer vision dice rolling bot for bias, then use the biased (but not technically “loaded”) dice to get players to roll what I want more often…
You test the die, then you put the numbers on. That’s the way to be sure.
