“The pope can clarify and develop teaching infallibly, but he can’t provide completely new teaching or reverse teaching.”

Do you think Pope Francis knows this?

Yes, I think the Pope knows this. It is noteworthy that there was a Pope a long time ago who was planning to reverse church teaching. He experienced an unexpected death shortly after announcing his plans.
