The security definition for RNGs is indistinguishably from truly random data. So if there is any test that they fail more often (averaged over random seeds) than true randomness, they're broken.

So you're claiming that dumb statistical tests broke three completely different CSPRNGs? That's a rather extraordinary claim, which I have a hard time believing.
