Agentic computer-use RL is reported in single runs, and those numbers mislead. Using verifier-guided repair of a 35B computer-use agent (CUA) across five oracle-graded environments, we show a repaired policy's success rate is dominated by upstream variance: a variance-components decomposition across three cells (crossed data-draw $\times$ seed grid, bootstrap CIs) finds evaluation variance negligible ($σ_{\mathrm{eval}} \approx 0$) and the training-seed effect small everywhere ($\leq 10\%$); instead it splits between the data draw and run-to-run nondeterminism, the data draw's share rising to
