the fact that this is regular reborn rarity 0.5 is pretty interesting since it means the rarity system has been changed since foxy took over

in open source, rarity basically worked like this: the game would make a list of every reborn/advanced reborn you could get at your current life, and added it to a list multiple times based on rarity (which is multiplies based on lifeskip for advanced reborns), it would then pick a random item from this list and give it to you

of course, you cant add an item 0.5 times (plus in the source version rarity uses intvalues which cant have decimals), which likely means rarity is now a numbervalue and the code was changed to make rebirth awarding more compatible with decimals.
