In a world which he created under circumstances that ensured that would completely lack the ability to do otherwise?

Dead means separated from God. This does not support your intent.

The lost are those who God has passed over for salvation...

God wanted Adam to sin, or he would have never set the trap.

9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to his own,b and his own peoplec did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

GOOD SAMARITAN 2.0
Calvinist edition.
A group of three people get mugged on the way to Jerusalem hurt on side of road.
Folks on other side of road see them.
Priest does nothing,
Preacher does nothing.
Calvinist Jesus flips a coin and decides today going to help one, He could help all 3,
but needs to make a point how glorious he is to the three.

IMO, that's a theological assumption forced on the text. The Bible itself doesn't have such a neat and tidy portrayal of God that easily fits into that assumption.
