Especially since Faramir is the younger brother and considered a tad too soft hearted, nose-in-books and not meeting reality with due firmness type of guy, by the rest of the family. Would Boromir even have understood the reason for going onwards, or just discounted it right away as the silly baby brother not knowing what's best for him?
