if an even is indeterministic, it need not have happened, or need not have happened that way
There is no such thing as “need” in Physics. There are physical laws, deterministic or probabilistic, and that’s it. “Need” is a human concept that has no physical counterpart. Your “simple argument” is an emotional reaction.
Your comment has no relevance, because probablistic laws automatically imply counterfactuals as well. In fact it’s just another way of saying the same thing. I could have shown it in modal logic, too.

Well, we have reached an impasse. Goodbye.
