IMO, either the Oracle is wrong, or the choice is illusory
This is similar to determinism vs. free will, and suggests the following example. The Oracle proclaims: “The world will follow the laws of physics!”. But in the counterfactual where an agent takes a decision that won’t actually be taken, the fact of taking that counterfactual decision contradicts the agent’s cognition following the laws of physics. Yet we want to think about the world within the counterfactual as if the laws of physics are followed.
