It's the combination of cycles which does the trick.

Unfortunately, you are still NOT getting the idea. The high frequency cycles are totally irrelevant for the ice ages. The ices occur because the forcings of the low frequency overwhelm the smaller forcings of the higher frequency components. You can easily see this by just peering at historical temp reconstructions for the last 1M years or so.

You are too attached to a "tipping point" type model as though a certain combination of events trips a switch, and from there own things head in one direction only. Not true.
