No, I didn't miss your point. And it's not an illusion that I have free choice.
Food for example: I choose what kind I want to eat once I become hungry. It has nothing to do with what happened in the past or events that just took place. I have foods I like thus I choose what kind I want to eat at any given time.
I choose who I hang out with. This also has nothing to do with events in the past. I meet someone and if I like them I'll hang out with them. If I don't, that's my choice to make.
Granted there are some choices that are decided by what events took place days prior to it but not all. There are still choices in our lives that are decided by us, not by events that took place that will help make the decision.
