I know, (click to show/hide)but I just like seeing the mystery of the (click to show/hide)black boxes, like the (click to show/hide)redacting that goes on with government files.

Actually the first time was when he defeated HHWB

I would argue that while he may have used his connection to the Outsiders when defeating HHWB, he was not aware of it (he probably just thought he got REALLY lucky or that Lea had done more to help him that she actually did, in fact I don't think he even knew, at the time, that HHWB was an Outsider). He did not learn or gain the knowledge until Lash mentioned it. As far as this goes I would say:
birth- he gained the innate ability talent
battle with HHWB- first unknowingly used the ability talent (and therefor perhaps the Outsiders became aware that he had this ability talent)
conversation with Lash- gained the knowledge of the ability talent (IIRC Lash directed his use of it at this point)
some unknown event- gains the skill of using the ability talent and/or fuller knowledge about it

I don't agree with the significance of the semantic differences you seem to be trying to emphasize.
Edit: Rethinking this. The things you emphasize seem rather contradictory and thus I think distract me from your underlying point, so I am contemplating this while I wash the dishes.
