Certainly, if your master plans consists of "I'm gonna sit back and see what happens."
If the master plan has a predetermined outcome (say "good", or "evil" or even as narrowed down as "Sauron WILL be overthrown") then all of the "free will" is working to achieve it, which means that the infinity of outcomes that should come with free will is drastically diminished.
