well, what you asked for is not completely specified so maybe there should be some variation (or more variation than there currently is) in the output (with a pelican on a bike being the common part). Just because you asked for a pelican riding a bicycle, why shouldn't it have a top hat or be on the moon? Just some common sense reasoning?

A simple request implies a request for a minimally-viable product. Including a top hat in that MVP is a much more deliberate creative choice. There's nothing necessary about a top hat for the pelican svg.

"Make me a PB&J" should result in what a reasonable person would consider a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I don't want to interact with an unpredictable system that "thought it would be fun" to deep-fry it.

"Well, you didn't say NOT to deep-fry it!"

It still makes the choice for the parts underspecified by you, the necessity doesn't go anywhere. But the choice is fixed, repetitive, and yet still unpredictable, because it's made by a random fluke in model's internals rather than thoughtfully chosen.
