   "Stochastic" basically means "guessing".

   Using such methods, a few times, might be OK for
   "getting close".

   But there ARE applications where "seems close enough"
   is NOT good enough. Planes, spacecraft, bridges, huge
   buildings, medical implants - GOTTA refine with the
   hard-core/hard-math tools.

   I'd suggest a TV series entitled "Engineering Disasters".
   Sometimes it's the stupidest mis-calc or oversight that
   leads to big flaming news stories ...
