Yeah, although Paz's implication that the NSA, NRO, DIA, and CSS was by 1974 under the direct control of Cipher/the Patriots, not to mention their at the very least manipulating the CIA and KGB, and if Ground Zeroes is anything to go by, they even have a strong influence on the United Nations' decisions, if not have direct control over it, makes even Big Boss's attempts at setting up a betrayal extremely unlikely to go undetected, never mind have any reasonable chance of success. Besides, considering how Zero was strongly implied to have ordered Paz to frame MSF with a nuclear strike against the US's East Coast, not to mention potentially killing Big Boss as well if it became even slightly apparent he won't take up Zero's offer, I doubt they'd reconcile that easily.
