If you're interested, the model is the classic "Rites of Passage" model produced original by Van Gennep and modified by Victor Turner, Edward Bruner, Charlie Laughlin and some others.

The reason I disagree with you is that the model was built based on observations in the field of how many cultures actually formalized this type of knowledge transfer.
