Boards are generated by a pRNG. So while they are not purely random, they are close enough to random that noboby can effectively predict the next tile/board.
The initial board is independent of your team. Using beta images from a year ago, I’ve demonstrated this. @Garanwyn provided statistical evidence long ago.
I disagree that all concerns presented in the forum can be described as valid. The myth of boards being tied to your team makeup is as old as the game itself and has been rebuffed countless times with evidence.
