I personally don't think that's how the Random% should work, but that's another discussion.

I don't really understand the question Cras asks ("what is the logic in this?") because I can't see how any other approach would be more 'logical'. If nation quality affected player quality, it would become impossible to customize origin settings, defeating the entire purpose of the feature, because any custom setting would dramatically affect the level of talent entering a league.

I dont want to see a superstar player coming out of some bizarre nation just because it happens to have hit the magic number in the dice roll. To me that is the point, if you want a league in say.....I dunno, the Congo.....its talent level is gonna be crap compared to a league that is based in the United States because the US has higher quality of baseball talent.
