No look at my wording more carefully. You are misinterpreting it. I said we don't know if a "closed form solution" is deterministic because we don't even know if there is a "closed form solution."
I also said that you CAN prove determinism to me by finding a closed form solution that is deterministic. I never said you needed to nor did I say that was the only way.
Your examples are for special cases. Can you prove it to me that for N-bodies and all possible initial conditions that all solutions are deterministic?
