If the outcome of the conflict is not relevant to the players/the PCs then the conflict is only color and the DM can just choose any plausible outcome without having to consult a table (which needs to be made beforehand, which requires preptime etc.). Also, why waste valuable playtime on the resolution of a conflict that the players/PCs are not interested in in the first place? Why spend much time on such a conflict at all? A conflict whose outcome can be randomized in the way you describe does not seem to be worth the word "conflict" in my opinion.</p></blockquote><p></p>
