This is why free will is pretty much an idea outside of determination. A universe in which it exists and a universe in which it doesn't are essentially indistinguishable. Because you can't tell the difference between someone doing something because they "free willed" it and someone doing it because chemistry required it. Similarly with the opposite.

Just the metaphysical description of universe change. Read the links I posted above, Scott Adams pretty wells sums up where I'm coming from.
