Sounds like that would be true if you were inside any closed surface.

Not quite: inside a closed surface you can't escape, but things can repeat.

You can avoid a coordinate, for example by choosing not to go there, or revisit another one repeatedly.

A black hole on the other hand doesn't have that: you cannot revisit old locations - attempting to do so moves you closer to the singularity.
