Question about the Air Bender culture revival?

I keep seeing people posting about how the new Air nation that Aang rebuilds in TLOK not actually being the full recreation of the previous nomadic culture because Aang was 12 when he ran away from the temple and therefore hadn’t learnt all the rituals and existing traditions that he could’ve learnt when he was older.

I was wondering why that’s assumed, since we know that Aang can communicate with his past Avatar lives, isn’t it possible that he could’ve learnt the missing information from Roku or Yangchen? It won’t be the exact same obviously there would’ve likely been changes to traditions, and the diminished size of the new nation would’ve affected its full realization, but it would’ve been mostly complete? Please correct me if I’m wrong I’ve been wondering about this for like a week LMAO
