I'm not sure if I understand this correctly, but isn't Marco's final graph evidence against a progressive system in general, regardless of whether computers are involved?


Not at all. Keep in mind that the graph is based on Renès hint to my computer implementation. This way the graph was generated to measure an effect of the computer implementation. 

To decide if there is a progressive system involved or not other tests are necessary. There is no doubt that the text in the VMS is not homogenous (see You are not allowed to view links.

There is a gradual evolution of a single system from "Currier A" to "Currier B" (see Timm & Schinner 2019, p. 6). 

It is also possible to point too effects within pages (see Timm & Schinner 2019, p. 9). There is for instance a blogpost from 2007 about page related structures (see You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.). Marco also writes "Q20 might have some 'paragraph-effect'.
