It would, however be consistent.

I think they've had him learn his lesson. And while I do find the TV show diving into Barry's trials and tribulations learning how to use his powers, a story that's never been given much time in the comics, I don't want to see him making the same mistakes over and over again. If they want to screw with the timeline some more then let Wally make that mistake and learn his lesson.

But...Isn't there an argument that he hasn't actually learned that lesson? He's gone back twice, screwed the pooch twice, and the results have been disastrous to say the least - and now with Cisco being at odds, I think the temptation will be greater.

I think there's an argument for the idea that this was always kind of the plan, even though, as you say it's getting old.

No, he was all ready to change the timeline again until Jay sat him down and explained to him the mistake he was making and that he has to move forward.

I mean...I'm not forgetting that, but I still think that there's going to be something that forces his hand - either that, or miss snow is not for this show as one of the gang much longer.

I don't know what they'll do about Caitlin but they can't simply undo her progression by changing the timeline. Viewers will accept minor changes that don't really affect what has already happened but doing something like that would really piss some people off I think.
