What I remember is that wolves tend to tell the cub some stuff but encourage them to ask the same questions and make the same mistakes in the thread too and look new and confused in every way... So that they know actually more and have a better grasp of things than they seem to. If there's been a trend of not telling newbie wolves anything, I'm not aware of it. In which case your comment makes more sense, I suppose. But in my opinion some strategies are just ever more popular than others, so saying that wolf tactics tend to run in cycles sounded odd to me.
