I see that SuStel already touched on what I was planning on mentioning as I worked my way through
the thread, but I figured I would still chime in and add another voice to the point...
You can still think of ghoS as associated with a path/course. The confusion here is that there are
two paths involved. The {Hevo'} mentioned could be more appropriately put as {HewIjvo'}. Even in
English sometimes people say "Get out of the way" instead of "Get out of my way". The other person
still has their own path/course on which they ghoS; you are basically telling them to alter their
course to avoid a collision. And in canon we see that one can ghoS a new course.
