3. "He never learns"

No, he's learned quite well that more often than not, when he pushes and pushes he gets his way. Sometimes he goes too far, but that makes no difference to him. There's always another mark to exploit, another issue to fuck up. It's exhausting trying to blunt him because he's a blunt instrument, bulling ahead. Introspection is for losers. Strategizing is a waste of time because the only strategy is push, push, push.
