From what I see here with our Mediterranean type climate, some figs retain all leaves, some a few and some lose all , but the crops continue. Figs seem to only go dormant if they need to and I don't believe it impacts on any crops. I had several trees here that retained figs over last winter to ripen in spring, and the same this year. With Caprifigs, the Mamme is the overwinter crop, as long as that is retained, and the trees put out overlapping crops, the cycle will continue with wasps, so I see no issue at all.
