If someone can give immortality to Richard and can not only share an island with Smokey but impose his rules on it then, when he sits down with you, recites a magical spell in a foreign language and says you are the same as him then he means more than you two are good drinking buddies.
What isn't speculation either is that Jacob wants to see Jack succeed. He gave him all that he could give him. According to the authors, that's all we really needed to know.
If Jack received Jacob's knowledge, he will certainly need time to digest it all. A little push in the right direction doesn't contradict that. When Jack needs the knowledge, it will be there, just like the light that isn't there but that he knows he will find.
So for the rest, I'll wait and see what the finished product looks like before judging.
