While my decisions seem to be handled via unconscious processes ahead of my conscious brain taking credit for them, I feel like what's often glossed over is what the effect is after that point. Presumably whether the conscious brain takes credit for an action of the physical body is feedback to those unconscious processes. When my consciousness notices my body doing things it doesn't take credit for (like, say, mindlessly putting the milk in the cupboard instead of the fridge), this should serve as a signal to the physical system that it failed to predict a decision the conscious brain would have made, had it the ability to do so. So sure, maybe all my decisions are on rails, and I experience the illusion of having made them. But there's no reason to dismiss that illusion as immaterial. It can be thought of as a sanity check. A sort of after-the-fact free will for future unconscious processes to consider. Which in practice, feels exactly like the free will of having made the decision in the first place.
