"There is no reason, for a program that works, to be on sale to the public. If it actually works, the developers will be too busy, raking in millions every week, instead of wasting their time selling the program for mere pittance. People by nature, do not like to share a cashcow."
Of course, if it was possible for any program/method to propose a small set of lines and have the winning combination in there every so often, nobody would share it. We don't talk about that here, this is impossible. We talk about improving odds to the point of making lottery enjoyable and why not, profitable even if this is via small wins hoping to get the big bucks some day. Thus, your whole sentence is pointless to this discussion. Why such a program shouldn't be made available under your logic, if it gives better value to the money spent by improving odds and/or making the whole lottery playing experience more enjoyable??

"Lottery software (and all lottery systems) have been debunked, theoretically, and through simulations, some of them published here at LP."
That is funny. You try to simulate a physical device with what?? A PRNG program? You forget all the physical factors involved in the way draws are made in a barrel; You have no idea what these physical factors are, even more to somehow model them in your simulation, thus any conclusions on lottery draws via simulations are worthless, plain as that.
Bottom line, simulations to estimate the behavior, or used to conclude anything about lottery draws made in barrels is ridiculous right at the beginning. Unless if you have a real drawing machine and do test runs there, your whole comment is debunked.
Since both of you are fans of lotteries drawn in a barrel being completely random events, which you take for granted, please comment on the following real examples, what do you think:
1. An 6/49 game, the player picks 12 numbers every time. Managed 4 times in a row to match 4 correct numbers in his selection.
2. A 5/45 + 1/20 PB lotto game. Player picks 18 numbers every time for the main field and 1 number for the powerball field. Draws come twice every week, makes about 104 draws annually. Managed 3 times all 5 correct numbers in his selection of 18 numbers within a year, in one of them also matched the PB number. Also, within a month had twice that event of 5 correct numbers (that means within 8-10 draws, produced twice the 5 match).
There are more examples like the above, just your opinion if these are "dumb luck", debunked theoretically or what.
