Documentation parts that guaranteed run-to-run determinism of scan algorithms were a copy-paste of reduce documentation that actually guarantees run-to-run determinism. Scan is using decoupled look-back algorithm that doesn't guarantee run-to-run determinism for pseudo-associative operators, see NVIDIA/thrust/issues/1587.
