 It is and it isn't.
The reason we're talking about lattice attacks is they make it possible to extract private keys from anything from a few signatures to 100s+ - if there are just slight biases (nonrandomness) in the nonces generated by your nonce algo.

 
 Interesting. So I suppose we definitely want to use proper sources of randomness and hope there aren't any bugs that can cause a pattern to emerge. Any thoughts on EdDSA and how it deterministically generates the nonce? Can this sort of thing be implemented in Bitcoin/nostr libraries (assuming it's good and solves the issue)? 
 RFC6979 does the same as EdDSA in terms of deterministic randomness.
