Genesis 3: 15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
If you had been Adam, you would have proceeded (immediately?) to eat the apple, compelled by logical necessity, as you understood it.
On the other hand, had I been Adam, I would have understood that I had a choice. My initial choice would have been to refuse the apple. I expect that I would have succumbed to temptation eventually. However making a choice is not the same thing as having not having a choice.
