I completely agree with you regarding the understanding of a cadenca. But, speaking for myself, with only about 3 years of clarinet experience I found it very helpful to have a detailed example of how it _might_ be done. Improvising would have been far beyond my abilities (and I also did not feel I had much virtuosity to show). So I tried to imitate what my teacher suggested - and once I could do this well enough, I started to change and adapt to my own likings.
Somehow this is like copying master paintings at the beginning of an artist's career. The approach may be controversial for creativity-advocats, but I personally found it helpful.
