More proof that they never read Dune

I've found yet some more proof that they didn't read Dune. In House Atreides, they say the spice allows a person to live to about 200. However!!!!
"Not without reason was the spice often called "the secret coinage." Without melange, the Spacing Guild's heighliners could not move. Melange precipitated the "navigation trance" by which a translight pathway could be "seen" before it was traveled. Without melange and its amplification of the human immunogenic system, life expectancy for the very rich degenerated by a factor of at least four. Even the vast middle class of the Imperium ate diluted melange in small sprinklings with at least one meal a day. ”

Yet again more proof that they haven't even read the previous books. I think I stated before, that after reading the prequals it just seems as if they glanced over the first book and the last one.
