Every outcome unpredictable and intentional is a choice.
Choices can be predictable to some degree.
I get your point but, for the intent of the post, a higher degree of precision would be expected in a response.

I think your understanding here is indicative of why the free will denier insists LFW is incoherent because free will implies intentional behavior and you seem to be stipulating random is unintentional. If your understanding is true, then I would also assume intentional behavior is determined (which I don't). I think intentional behavior is random. I think anything that happens by chance is random. Therefore, I think if I don't have a chance to do otherwise, then I don't have the freedom to do otherwise.
