Should GG fundamentally be played differently in bull vs. bear markets

I will throw out my simplistic analysis for discussion. It appears obvious to me that bull & bear markets have huge fundamental impacts on potential GG companies and tech trends. So, I wonder if strong reversals in the economy/stock markets should cause a fundamental change in how GG is to be played, until those factors reverse themselves again.

I would think that the portions of the GG book dealing with the progression of technologies & companies through the Chasm, Bowling Alley and Tornado (and the amazing effects that occur therein) may only be consistently useful in a bull market like most of the 90's. Whereas, in a bear market (like we are in now), the focus should probably be placed primarily on buying proven, mainstreet G&K's at bargain prices, based on historically low multiples seen in past recessions.
