Because computers, unlike almost anything else in the known universe,

can
(and often will) give you a different result from the same input.


If there was a different result, it wasn't the same input. :-)


It seems you still trust computers.

The problem is that it is impossible to know whether the computer has the
same input or not...

After my work with avionics software I most certainly do not trust
computers.

same input or not...


It's not impossible. It is usually impractical, but it isn't
impossible.
