Well, intelligence is defined as what the intelligence test measures.

Right, so where's the Free Will test?

sentience. Or consciousness.

IMO these are a bit worse defined than intelligence, but still more so than free will. I don't think it would mean anything to say I don't believe in free will, but when I say I don't believe in consciousness, the delusion I deny is one people actually have. The state of your brain is only that, a state, but people are possessed by an overpowering intuition of having experience that is independent from the physical reality and data structure.

Free will on the other hand isn't even a delusion, it isn't anything more than rhetoric.

Same as conciousnes. That concept only consists to differentiate between groups of living beings to justify eating some of them. (Disclaimer, I too eat meat, but using conciousnes/sentience as a justification is just a rethoric, or more plainly a lie).
