My understanding was that caffeine was dissolved almost immediately, on the first steep or two, and this was a standard recommendation for those who wish to cut down their caffeine consumption—throw out the first steep and drink the others. So the ratio could only be changing in theanine’s favor, which doesn’t sound like a bad thing.
