"The  Nord  heroes  Felldir the Old ,  Gormlaith Golden-Hilt, and  Hakon One-Eye  contrive the Dragonrend shout and use it and an  Elder Scroll  to partially defeat  Alduin  by casting him adrift in time, marking the turning point in mankind's favor during the  Dragon War ."

If the "Way of the Voice" had existed back then these people never would have learned shouts and Alduin would have won. Seeing as The reason they were taught The Voice in the first place was because Kyne wanted the Nords to overthrouw the Dragons, you're wrong.

They don't force the Dragonborn to follow The Way of The Voice because the purpose for your voice is not known to them and it would be against their views to hinder what plans Kyne has for you and your voice. However they know the reason the voice was given to the heroes of old, and to go against that would be a Sacrilidge.
