it’s not the lore i have a problem with, it’s the sloppy writing hoping those who notice will overlook for the grandeur of the effort. it’s the physical and logical timeline they’re attempting to shoehorn in reverse while obviously presenting what is essentially the same universe in the same way, just … you know … so outside of any timeline that might intersect with the movies they can, wacka wacka wacka
Foundation is not a faithful adaptation of the books, but the show is at least internally consistent.
Based on OP’s description, it seems like there are a few things that viewers of the Dune series will have to suspend their disbelief on, or else it may fail to meet logical consistency with the newer movies.
It’s weird how you criticise this show for not being lore faithful, then hold up the Foundation as a shining diamond…
(I haven’t watched either, so this is just an outside observer musing)

And let’s face it, a faithful adaptation of the Foundation books would be incredibly boring.
