Thanks to the lightfall reveal, we can confirm that the witness is not controlling the darkness, he is leading the pyramids but not the darkness.
How ?
Its because of strand. According to the dev, strand is a new darkness subclass which was discovered by the guardian which means not even the witness knows it.
The two difference between these 2 subclasses are:
Stasis was given to us (sort of) - witness told us to go to europa “ Ancient power awaits you in europa” but strand is different. I think this is a big issue for the witness since the darkness is starting to favor the guardian more than him.

I think you're assuming the witness doesn't know about strand. I think what they meant was the guardian discovers it alone so without the help of Eris or Elsie or the drifter etc etc
