No, that wasn’t what I said nor meant. A ball’s course is determined at the outset by the laws of science and nature, and whether or not you know what course it will take depends on your abilities to make the right calculations. I said that if a boy stands in front of a candy counter and is given the option to choose a candy, it is not a predetermined course that can be calculated with any super computers. He is free to choose, and the more you know about him, the better able you are to predict what choice he will make. That is a very different issue.
I wasn’t trying to map out an answer to the questions of the universe, I was just trying to explain why knowing what someone will do does not impede on their ability to make their own choices.
