Ordering events in Standby Phase (Future Fusion and Armed Dragon LV3)

Does the turn player get to choose when during their 2nd Standby phase that they Special Summon the Fusion Monster selected when Future Fusion was activated?
A question arises when that player's monster zone is full, including an Armed Dragon LV3 whose effect can be activated this Standby Phase/2nd Standby Phase for Future Fusion.
Since the player's monster zones are full, they wish to activate and resolve Armed Dragon LV3's effect. Once Armed Dragon LV5 is on the field, activate their set Compulsory Evacation Device targeting their Armed Dragon LV5. This frees up one space in their monster zone so Future Fusion may now resolve and then special summon their Fusion Monster.
Is this order of events allowed or must the resolution of Future Fusion be the first thing that happens?
I know Future Fusion is in the process of resolving so a player cannot chain Compulsory Evacuation Device->chain Armed Dragon LV3 effect.
I also know the ordering of events in the end phase is up to the turn player, so I allowed a player in our tournament this past weekend to do as I described above. I wasn't 100% sure, so I was hoping to get an official ruling.
