Probably because true randomness is different than "too many parameters to account for".
The physical interactions you described follow precise laws, it's just that there are way too many interactions to be realistically predictable in real time... for now.
The randomness described in the article derives directly from the statistical nature of quantum physics, so it's non-deterministic by design.
Now to be fair, all deterministic "traditional" physics is an emergent phenomenon of non-deterministic quantum physics, but that would be ahuge digression I don't have the time and energy for right now...
