Reality is non-deterministic because determinism would imply the ontological existence of things. The relationship between indeterminacy and determination is isomorphic to the relationship between ontologically unmarked and marked, or ontologically un-demarcated and demarcated.
The more extant something is the more self-defined and delineated it is, the less extant something is the less self-defined and delineated it is, and the delineating line between any two examples is arbitrary.

Non-extant things are still ontologically real, to the exact same degree that extant things are ontologically unreal. Consensus reality is a shared system of names for random cutouts. In a sense, unreality is pure potential, the total possibility space of all things.

This is how consensus reality, which would better be known as the named set of all obviously extant and self-demarcating things (and some other things), emerges from unreality.
