the idea is, before you would be able to make an tent, you would have too sleep an day or two in an cave, or an leanto or even an old animal burrow,(the 1 day those things have an use for,cause no bats)
but you could be up and about with your tent on day 2 , could you just have built an log cabin, yes. stayed in the cave? yes. and you would have some more hides too turn intoo leather for your palisade, but with your tent you are mobile still ,and that long before palis are up or vclaims
with the "primitive" tent we have today, you would only have your mobilehome after an flachsrotation or two, maybe sooner if your goatshearing game is A grade, and that is if you really bumrush it with priority
so you wont have an tent untill after most villages have there first banners down, including pali+ partial lanndscaping.
but hey, if you really wanna push it, just hide some tanning tubs in an burrow, and wander about, you can build an leanto+bed wherever you go, just contruct your shelter quick before it gets dark
