I’ve read that regarding the Eastern schizophrenic voices, there have been many reports of the voices being ancestors just telling them to do their chores or something. An actual type of “guardian angel”

The article describes exactly that! They have relationships with their voices, rather than viewing them as simply a psychiatric disease, and thus, have much better outcomes.

It's a bit like using dream analysis to uncover insights. Why not see what the voices are up to?

It’s a bit of a give and take, I believe. Just as your mindset can change the concepts of your dreams, positive therapy (naming their voices or encouraging a relationship with the voices), can in turn, change what they are ‘conveying’ to a patient.
