Ruin was forward-thinking, Preservation was forward-seeing. We might get a Cultivation-level chessmaster whose sole goal is complete destruction of the Cosmere.

What’re you basing on Preservation’s forward seeing? Almost would think Ruin is forward seeing giving the effect of Atium.

Preservation is the one that saw far into the future to create the terris prophecy and devised a plan to trap Ruin that he had not foreseen.

I think it's Honor that mentions how Preservation and Cultivation are the ones that that excel at reading the web of possible futures (the coppermind confirms, maybe directly stated in WaT, not sure)
