Dismissing determinism as a fallacy ignores that inductive reasoning from consistent patterns is philosophically standard; the critique conflates logical form with epistemic practice.

Conflate(the criticism being made in the statement): To mistakenly treat two different things as if they were the same thing.
Epistemic: "Epistemic" relates to knowledge—how we know things, what counts as knowledge, and whether we can trust what we believe to be true. It comes from the Greek word for knowledge and is used to describe questions about the reliability and validity of our beliefs and understanding. For example, "epistemic humility" means acknowledging the limits of what you can actually know for certain.
determinism(Discussion of classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and general relativity): A property of physical theories concerning whether the laws governing a system fully fix future (and past) states given present conditions; admits of degrees ('fall only a bit short')
inductive reasoning(Illustrated by the coin-flip example: repeated tails outcomes license expectation of a future tails outcome.): Reasoning that projects observed patterns onto unobserved instances.
