Critics of "free will in the absolute incompatibilist sense" are correct.
Critics of "compatibilist free will" object to the misuse of terms by
compatibilists, not to the concepts described by those terms.
There is no confusion. The problem is quite clear...combatibilists

under threat of coercion. Compatibilist free will corresponds with the
legal term.
