Further, speed steps may or may not be linear, i.e., a speed step increment may be a smaller or bigger speed increase depending upon whether it's step 6 or step 60.

Sorry Marty, not quite correct. Speed steps are closer together relative to track speed at the low end, and at higher speed steps produce a larger speed change.
Non-Linear.
