The optimal bet ramps are developed in concert with the risk level you are willing to take with a bankroll of a given size. The answer is yes, a TC1 and TC2 does justify increases in your bets within the confines of your risk tolerance and bank size. If you are uncomfortable with these then I would advise adjusting the bankroll and ror parameters to more appropriately fit your risk tolerance.

You questions sound as if you are not totally familiar with the concepts of Kelly betting, RoR and the resulting optimal bet ramps. If so, I would counsel some effort to better grasp these concepts as they will serve you well going forward.
