NextDouble() ∈ [0, 1). We use a strict inequality, so a 0% rollout value sporadically returns true as 0⩽0.

The fix is to use a non-strict inequality, <. The upper bound still works: 0.999... < 1.

We noticed this internally because feature flags were occasionally tripping even with 0% rollout. This appears to be the root cause.

Additionally, the CLA GHA didn't appear to trip. This PR is provided as part of my employment with https://github.com/roblox, I have the needed authorization to sign the CLA so please do send me a link to an agreement I can sign!

@neiljohari The license check mentions that all CLA requirements are met. Have you already contributed to other Microsoft repos?

I took a look. The license check did run. For small enough changes it doesn't prompt CLA sign.
