Now what you might not realise is that "free-will" processes don't correspond to the defined stochastic processes. If you had a statement like "Person A will take the moral high road and save person B in this situation with 90% probability" that would still be as much "autonomy violating" as a "with 100%" kind of thing.

Who told you that?

I do not have any other authority to refer to than myself. Feel free to argue to the contrary if the thought doesn't seem obvious.
