So does every other random infinite sequence of bits. The unintuitive part comes from infinity, not pi.

It also doesn't contain all past and future knowledge because it also contains all possible falsehoods about the past and future in a way that's indiscernible from the truth.

Encoding information as an offset into a pseudorandom sequence is no more storage efficient than storing the information directly.
