I didn't really have a favorite band and left it blank, but then decided it'd be much funnier to try it lots of times with band=1, then =2, etc. and see get results from #0 to #10. Many of them are disturbing, but none so much as #6.
But sometimes people's notions are wrong. Analogy. People thought light had to be either a wave, or a particle. They insisted they had to know which. Then someone came along and showed they were asking the wrong question. Light was something else, that was often quite like one, but sometimes quite like the other.
Understanding progressed, but first by accepting that the original question was unanswerable.
I think the same applies here. I don't think there is a definition of free will that fits our notion of what it should be. I think we need to define our wave-function equivalent. Alternatively, I'm game to looking for a definition, but if I think there isn't one, and you think there is, I think you should do the looking :)
