You can randomize all of these conditions, yet algorithms exist that solve the game for any of these given states. I think the correct claim here is that any game with open information is solvable.
Correct. Le Havre isn't random, it just has a large number of opening states - which makes it harder to solve of course, since you'd have to solve each of them separately.
And you cannot solve each separately, as the information randomly determined at setup (buildings in each stack) is not open information.
I hope you don't mean that the order of the buildings after setup is hidden, because that is wrong. That's probably not what you're saying, but it sounds like that's what you're saying.
Then I have been playing this game wrong.
