"A first-time would-be smoker has more free will on deciding whether to smoke the next cigarette than a 20-years smoker." Does this make sense with your definition of free will? If it doesn't, what is free will for you? (Thinking how to phrase something for a future essay)

"Smoker and non-smoker are same regardless of 1, 2, or 3." In that case, smoker and non-smoker are the same for (1) and (3) and partially only for (2). (I'm not trying to push a view here, I just want to understand what people refer to when talking about free will)

I’m not saying that they arrive at the same decision. I’m saying that in all methods the level of free will they have is the same. In 1 and 2 it is 0. In 3 they both have free will. They may use it differently but either have it or don’t.
