Tournament group seeding

This is as unfair of a distribution (for player #2) as could have happened:

Group 1 is players #'s 2,3,4,5,6, while Group 2 is #'s 1,7,8,9,10.
Wouildn't spreading the ratings more evenly be better?

@Ponderable
Thank you for the insight, but I already realize that the pairings were made according to the 'random' rule, and so they did follow the stated proceedure. My point is that using 'original' would have been more fair, and therefore better, than the choice to use the 'random' system.
