Free will is a hard one. Logically
It cannot exist. Let's look at all sides...
You can have free will because God allows it.
That doesn't Sound like free will to me. That means we only have free will because he said so, that's not really free will.
From a non religious aspect I could say to you "hey go on, do something now, anything, use your free will!". Say then you decide to jump around and sing. That's not a free will choice. If I didn't propose you do something in the first place then you wouldn't have done what you just did.
There is no such thing as free will, only a limited set of choices laid out to you by someone or something that creates the situation.

And again I think your examples show a sort of undefined grey area free will which is impartial to many who have not tried to form an exact definition of free will. So your undefined grey area free will will never meet your requirements because you base all your examples on this false premise i.e This undefined free will idea.
I have looked at alot of argument and the conclusion I've reached is free will exists and is compatible with determinism.
