Linear roadmaps are misleading without a crystal ball for seeing the future. A roadmap that recognizes the existence of risk as time goes on is more honest. But an effective PM needs to anticipate possible branches, too - and create clear criteria for following each path.
ALT Three roadmaps: Misleading roadmap (linear) - “We will follow this linear path from zero to our inevitable victory, and these are the milestones that will get us there.” Honest roadmap (conical) - “We know where we are today, and have a good idea about the near future, but recognize that the future becomes uncertain.” Strategic roadmap (diverging paths) - “We know where we are today, and anticipate decision points that will change our path. We are intentionally gathering the data that will help us make those decisions.”

Whenever I see the need to "clarify roles and responsibilities" (eg EM/PM, between EMs of different orgs) I always think to the advice a mentor once gave me:
Is it a *role* problem or a *relationship* problem? What really is the source of the friction?

The fine line we have to learn is:
Strategy is about long term objectives, impact today, setting constraints, getting and absorbing feedback from execution but not messing with execution.
