What seemingly entangles us is apparent doership/cause & effect. As long as that is our operational paradigm we have no choice but to play it out, be buffeted to and fro.

Although apparent doership is indeed a factor in the entanglement, I'm not convinced that "the apparent universe is purely deterministic".
We are the "god" of our dream universes and yet virtually everyone gets entangled in a nightmare at one time or another.
Elaborate further. This sounds like predestination and that I'm not sure that you really want to go there.
