Well, it seems pretty evident that most Deltas (Primers and Defiants)
were moved by Patriot's execution.  However, because there is a war
of (dis-)information going on, there are plausible reasons why Truth
might not publically call Patriot a "martyr"; if Truth, being a
recognized
individual, were to say it, she would be targetted as the root of the
idea, a propogandist that can be put down.  If, however, the martyring
of
Patriot comes from the populous, it will be difficult to defeat the
idea because Delta Prime cannot point to any one individual who started
it.
It would be a "people's idea".

Also, the Guide section is really just trying to drill the point home
that Patriot's execution had a lot of effect on the people in the large.
It's not so much as a "secret" as it is a "point to be remembered by
Guides".

No idea...  (no bells ringing...)
