I agree that some notions of free will imply that Newcomb’s problem is impossible to set up. But if one of these notion is what is meant, then the premise of Newcomb’s problem is that these notions are false, right?
It also happens that I disagree with these notions as being relevant to what free will is.
Anyway, if this had been discussed in the original post, I wouldn’t have complained.

It’s advertised as being a paradox, not a proof.
