The page, as it is, seems to include some tropes that rely on a fairly particular interpretation of events, which I don't think is fully supported by the episode
-I don't think the Nox are putting up a deliberate ruse of being weak primitives. After all, they freely demonstrate all of their abilities, which should require insane amounts of tech to pull off.
-The Nox deliberately testing SG-1 is not even insinuated, and the reveal at the end seems much more likely to have actually been intended exactly how the nox guy says it: Putting SG-1 at ease about the Nox's safety.
So, is there any particular reason (inteviews, director's commentary, stuff like that) the events are to be interpreted in the way stated on the page?
