Rom 9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
Rom 9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
Rom 9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
We are not pots of clay. Clay is inert, therefore it has no feelings, hopes, or dreams. It is one thing to do what you wish with clay, it is another thing to do what you wish with living, feeling, people.
These quotes do not answer the question. I have read the bible, I am looking for real answers.
Maybe even less than one percent but more than the sands of the sea and the stars in the sky. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
So why did he bother making the rest of us? Why not make to few who are "in" and call it good?

You say man was redeemed before the world began. Is that all men or just the 1% who have been "saved"?
