It's reasonable for any character that is more naive than LZ is. If you play a char that doesn't know about MF and Gith already then LZ is presented right from the get go as the best authority going around.
Gale is maybe the next best counter to LZs authority in this area, and if you have Gale in your squad he APPROVES when you indicate you're going to follow LZs lead.
The only way to avoid this issue from a narrative focus is to not have LZ around - Gale also approves killing the goblins and chasing down Halsin - or to have a PC that you consider more knowledgeable than LZ.
On the latter part, RP aside, how many new players to BG3 will have any meta-knowledge about D&D such that they will consider LZ up front as the naive bluster full character that she is?
It's anecdotal, but we see new players time and time again not realising they should rest more often, can avoid following LZ, and that Halsin is actually #1 and the creche thing is actually just LZs personal sidequest.
The way the game is currently structured it is also very likely that many parties will pick up LZ, as she's the first companion you meet and gets her emotional bond into the players early. Maybe this will all swing around at the end and they have a different plan for it all.. but it seems unlikely.
