The BG can't see the Golden Path. It's one of their major failings and the reason why they wanted their Kwisatz Haderach in the first place, to lead them with fully sighted prescience.

As with every report preceding this one, we must address the Lord Leto’s prescience. There is no doubt that his ability to predict future events, an oracular ability much more powerful than that of any ancestor, is still the mainstay of his political control.

We do not defy it!

It is our belief that he knows every important action we take far in advance of the event. We guide ourselves, therefore, by the rule that we will not knowingly threaten either his person or such of his grand plan as we can discern. Our address to him will continue to be:

And:

“Tell us of your grand plan that we may help.”

He has provided no new answers to either question during this period.
