About Attack on Titan's scaling

So, orginally I remember that Bertolt's colossal titan used to scale from kicking a hole into Wall Maria. However, that calc not only is linked on the verse page as 1.95 tons (8-C, almost High 8-C), but it even was removed from Bertolt's profile, while still retaining his 8-B rating.

So I wanted to ask where does thia come from now that the calc was modified/removed? This of course affect Armin's colossal titan, as well as Eren's final titan form.
But it also seems to change the rating for the humans wielding swords, which, tbh, doesn't make much sense to me and I think that scaling them to 9-A or 8-C would honestly make more sense, but I don't really have much argument other than saying that scaling them to Eren making a cut through the specific weak spot of titans seems odd to me.

Any ways, the main point was asking what's up with the scaling and ratings.
 
Despite this being a year ago, this needs to be brought up.

Also, there seems to be some counter-scaling to swords.

So the thought process is that Swords are 8-B because it is superior the Colossal durability because it can tear through its flesh. But swords cannot pierce through the Armored Titan. Hence why the Colossal Titan doesn't scale to the durability of the Armoured Titan and why hardening is also above the Colossal Titan since it's just flesh

But the finale of AOT kind of breaks this. Hange with her swords and thunderspears can still tear through Colossal Titans napes (with the Thunderspears being able to take out limbs of the Colossals) and destroy them.

But the issue is, Bert's titan comes back in the finale. And literally bites off the Armored Titans head, which is City Block level+ and whose armour is above swords. The only counter I can make out of this is that crushing strength can bypass it as 8-C Eren did to twist the Armoured Titans arm to break his armour, and it seems Eren without hardening can bite and crack Annie's hardening in S1 but the punches and kicks are incapable of doing any damage to it..

Also not sure if it's accepted. But this is another feat. And the calc member in the comment recalcs it to 12 Tons or just barely City Block level. But issue is, this is isn't physical. This is another transformation. The Colossal Titan is rated Power 11/10 compared to the Armoured which is 8/10 and Bert casually one-shots the Attack Titan. So he's at least 8-C. And maybe 8-B+ if we consider he destroyed the Armored Titan in one-bite
