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.

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