Max had speculated that it was unlikely that the Pope was not "in the know" about something like the unveiling. I expect this info has been passed along to trusted world leaders to avoid unpleasant surprises. The timing appears to coincide with long enough after the unveiling for things to settle down, but close enough for the Pope to officially "welcome" them to regular society.
I agree that asking lone wolves to just be nivce, play by the rules, and let things happen is just asking for them to get involved. This may have been the idea... those who follow rules are out of the picture, leaving the "specialists" to shake things up. Max is pondering where MrCoon could wander, given he is better suited to lone wolf-type activity.
