He built Big Boss up as the big, epic heroic image of the Patriots. Even when Big Boss was near death after Metal Gear 2, Zero went as far as to keep him alive but subdued just to simply keep the legend alive.

Big Boss could easily pretend to rejoin the Patriots. Or at the end of The Phantom Pain, Zero could allow Big Boss to live on the stipulation that he rejoins the Patriots and FOXHOUND or whatever. And BB, knowing he has the resources he needs to build up his private army and uprising, agrees. Anything could happen, just remember that.

A guy who "idolizes" someone would not try to frame them with launching a nuclear weapon against the mainland US and make them an enemy of the world. Actually, someone who idolizes them would work hard to prevent that even being a remote possibility. In the aspect of Zero trying to have Big Boss framed. Zero holds a bit of an obsessed stalker mentality. The "If I can't have you, no one will" kind of attitude. Because if Paz really did frame Big Boss. The U.S. would have turned Mother Base into a melted pile of steel with Big Boss buried underneith it in the ocean. But this does prove more of my point that ther is retconning happening and retconning in the works. But like I said, It's Kojima's worlds. I'm not gonna argue as long as the game has the amazing balance of gameplay and story.
