Let us say: Dave Smith is one of the parents of MIDI.

And talking about shuffle in any kind of sequencer or drum machine, is
not necessarily related to MIDI. MIDI provides only one out of several
possibilities to transfer a tempo between two machines and to
synchronize them. And all of them will have the same problem with
shuffle, because shuffle is basically a contradiction to a good tempo sync.
