I wouldn't mind so much if I didn't specifically get my GE for this purpose. 0 for 22 is definitely not random at all. I have my profile set up and can confirm that my Membership Number/PASSID is a 9 digit number which I then put into my Delta profile under Known Traveller Number (or whatever it is called).
Feel free not to answer if you think this is too personal of a question. But for your GE interview/application, did they seem concerned about anything in your past? (i.e. legal trouble that were not enough to warrant a deny). Also, how many years have you had your DL account and what's your lifetime MQM?
I have a theory that PreCheck is not as random as we think. That based on the details of a person's history, they adjust the "randomness" of PreCheck. For example, a 2MM with a spotless GE background check would get "randomly" selected 1% of the time. While a brand new customer with a few misdemeanor offences, might get selected 95% of the time.
