well it's been covered at considerable length in a multitude of threads, but this thread is for anything 40k (and not everyone will have read those threads) and given the problems that arose from his fatherlyness (or lack thereof) i'm sure there's still more to be said.

and although i've said this before i can't help saying again that if he had just informed, at the very least magnus, about the webway project then magnus may have been able to warn emps without the catastrophy of breaching emps' psychic barrier which led to such unpleasentness as well as magnus' own downfall.

if emps had been warned about horus without his psychic defences being broken (thus wrecking any chance of finishing the project), regardless of whether or not he believed magnus at the time, then the webway project may have been finished by the time of the battle for terra, possibly allowing reinforcments to flock to earth through the webway. hell, even a few craftworld eldar may have joined in earth's defence via the webway, namely those under eldrad as he had already attempted to thwart/warn of the the corruption of horus.
