I mostly agree with your point of view, and I am not actually saying
that your technical statements are wrong. I am trying to explain that
there is something more to be learned. The apparent paradox can be
reduced to the never ending deterministic vs free will argument. I
think the resolution of these two paradoxical problems is a necessary
design principle.

At this point I think it relevant to bring in an assertion from Larry
Niven (Protector):
Paraphrase: When you understand all the consequences of an act, then
you don't have free will. You must choose the best decision. (For some
value of best.)
If this is correct, then Free Will is either an argument over
probabilities, or over "best"...which could reasonably be expected to
differ from entity to entity.
