I call EVERYONE kid at some point, it's just a weird habit of mine.

I sometimes reiterate things to clarify for myself, another weird habit, related to extremely mild OCD (i also wash my face and hands every time I pass a sink)

You aren't around here much, so you probably don't know the level of depth we put into examining things during the off season of the show. we've got a lot of things that are largely agreed upon that are not on wiki pages because we don't  have actual confirmation.

you are ocnfusing patience with planning. grimm are ageless, they do not die unless something kills them (implied by Oobleck) so they can wait for centuries to fulfill a natural instinct, in their case that instinct, that inherent purpose, is destruction. they do not learn to plan, they learn to not die, and by extension they learn to wait. no deeper thought goes into it beyond 'now' and 'wait' as the goal and methods never change.
