She can't see something she doesn't have a chance of seeing. It seams to require her to activate it to work (ie; it doesn't run constantly in the background) and from what we've seen free will effects these choices perfectly normally meaning whatever she sees may be irrelivent anyhow... Look at Weather Forcast.

Steven never actually saw the happy ending version until he actually did it. I think you may have misunderstood my point. See, while yes future vision doesn't grant an absolute picture of the future; heck Garnet herself made that clear in Future Vision. But it would give her the possibility of the Slinker still lurking in the temple, and therefore would give her the motivation to try and find it. It's likely a small percentage, sure, but I think, being Garnet she would at least try to look for it if she saw it as a possibility.

And apparently I was right on that point since it was enough for her to track it down into Amethyst's room. The whole point I was trying to make is that there's no way that the Slinker, on its own anyway, could have been this discrete this long without any of the Big Three knowing about it to some capacity. I think there are some closed doors regarding the Slinker that need to be opened.
