was thinking exactly this... and even better, why not on real data, especially since real, clean, data in this field is not at all hard to find.
For example, option price among other params depends on the interest rate. For the last decade interest rate was around 0% in Europe and slightly higher in US. If you train on that data only, there is no chance to "learn" option prices in the high-interest-rate environment which we saw for the last few years. Hence, you need synthetic data to learn that region of the market space.
