@JBennett: There is one (or more) problem(s) with attempting to calculate this progression. We actually don't know how long it took Baam to climb from 2F to 20F... We know how long it took him to appear on 20F, but we don't know how much of that time was spent on actual climbing because of the undetermined time he had spent with FUG. First as a prisoner, then in training that was probably not only about fighting techniques and Shinsoo manipulation, but also about some schooling, and possibly even further attempts at brainwashing.

After 20F, he was "forced" to join a relatively weak team that has gotten decent power up only by the time they reached the Train City. Then he was recovering from, let's call it a Thorn fever. And if he manages both to survive the Hell Train (likely), and to complete his Revolution with GoG, he might very easily become far too powerful for the Regular tests... Which suggests that the climbing speed after the Hell Train is likely to depend entirely on things and events that have nothing to do with the climbing itself.
