>The uncomfortable aspects of this theory include free will as illusion

I disagree! Free will is an emergent property of not knowing the future. I don't see determinism as an impediment to free will. Anyways, everyone reports the ability to make decisions, just because the process of making a decision can be modeled mathematically doesn't mean a decision was not made.
