God had no obligation to save anyone. However, it was God who made salvation possible, and set the means - by grace, thru faith.

If a man gets to choose God, does God get to choose men? Or does God have less free will then men?

If God wanted to save us by grace thru election, then of course he could choose to do so. But that isn’t what scripture says he chose to do.

I'm not even a part of this conversation and I'm too wiped out to think about joining.

But one thing that always gets my attention is the possibility that a set of choices are not exhaustive

Maybe God has more free will but chooses to give some up. That could be a possibility, no? And maybe there are others.
