That's true of any block cypher in CTR mode.

I am NOT going to argue that this is the reason for using an RSA based 
keystream generator in this particular application but one potential 
advantage of such generators (see, for example, the Blum-Blum-Shub (BBS) 
generator) is that the n'th bit in the keystream can be calculated without 
having to run the generator up to this point.
