THIS GUARANTEES THAT THERE ARE AT LEAST TWO REALISABLE ALTERNATIVE COURSES OF ACTION IN THE RESEARCHER'S FUTURE.

We can't predict the future, ergo, free will. That's what you say. . .
Hey, I can predict the future, and if you were to take your finger far enough out of your arse that you could think about the actual question, you too would be able to predict the future.
Here's a challenge, arrange to meet a friend, "in the future", if you manage to meet them, then what happened? Did you predict the future? Did you have the freedom to create the future? Or was this an infinitely improbable coincidence, that your "prediction" matched the event that transpired?
If you did predict the future, go on then, teach me the magic.
