"and I've been at it for a few hours now so I don't buy that depends-on-the-hour theory"

16 times at 2-3 wil take around 1.5 hours tops. I've had streaks lasting for as long as 3 hours before stopping. I find that waiting a few hours and then resuming later on works wonders for me (this was how I cleared 5-3's last 2 kills in as many attempts with an all sub fleet, for example), and if I get a good streak I'd better take advantage of it now or it'll be gone later. More often than not I noticed my streaks starting or stopping right at the hour mark, which is why I said it was hour-based.

"RNGs are based on system-time, which has little to do with minutes or hours."

Still time-based. I'm not sure of the exact mechanics; it's just that minutes/hours are easier to work around with, and minutes/hours was based on what I've observed for my own as well as other players' personal experience.
