All the previous comments are very sound!
I'd also suggest the following: some reeds and some mouths require bitting more than others.
I used to bite, and when I really worked on better embouchure, my tone dropped about a half-step!
=> don't misunderstand me: biting really is bad! But perhaps shorter reeds (the cane after the thread) might help by providing a more stable starting point.
Think of it as a crutch to help a broken leg heal: the leg must eventually walk on its own, but it needs help for a while so it won't get broken worse.
