GO-SSJ4 being a separate branch doesn't mean they're unrelated to SSJ, nor does them being "sequential" matter. SSJ 1-3 are sequential because 2 and 3 are just powerups on top of the foundation of SSJ, but even this doesn't prevent Goku from transforming directly into one of the latter forms which we see him doing. This whole "sequential transformation" argument doesn't even work in the first place because SSJG actually is totally unrelated to SSJ1 in every way but its name yet we see Goku power up from one to the other in DBS Broly.
This doesn’t—We’re talking about the FIRST TRANSFORMATION here. When you go SSJ2, you’re a SSJ first. When you go SSJ3, you’re a SSJ2 first. When you’re a Golden Oozaru, it’s base, because it’s not related to SSJ2-3.
GO, as described above, is a combination of SSJ and Oozaru, and is therefore a 'separate branch' from SSJ1-3 insofar as it's a branch from SSJ1 and Oozaru that leads into SSJ4 instead of continuing directly from 3. So no, Baby is not stacking some abstracted 32,000x multiplier on top of SSJ3, and is at best just combining Oozaru with SSJ3 instead of 1.
No. It says when a person who can transform (not IS, because see Goku and Vegeta) into a SSJ turns into a Great Ape, they become a Golden Oozaru. It is not the combination of forms.

Even if it was, that literally makes no sense. You’d be arguing the direct multipliers of SSJ and Oozaru Combined (500x, or 5000x for Grade 4 SSJ) to match up to Baby’s own insanely more powerful capabilities. Because again, Baby’s form should be the same as Goku’s.

And it explicitly IS separate from all previous forms. OUTRIGHT.

Super Saiyan 4 - The form which draws out the battle power which Saiyans posses out to the utmost limits is this, Super Saiyan 4!! It’s distinguished by having a different appearance than previous Super Saiyans, with red body fur and long black hair!! It is called Super Saiyan 4 out of convenience, but due to it being a transformation from Golden Oozaru, it would be no exaggeration to call it a different species from all previous Super Saiyans!! Thinking of it as a different species, you could also name such points as the fact that unlike with 3 he has an adult appearance, despite being a transformation of little Goku.”

You're repeating points that weren't contested by anyone. I agree that SSJ1-3 all directly follow up one another, I don't think Goku transforming from one form to another or vice-versa proves anything, since we see him go from Base to 3, or from SSJ1 to SSJG despite the latter not being related in any way to the former whatsoever. (What's stopping Baby from just going SB2->GO and then back to SB2 without stacking the two if Goku could with 1->G?)

The argument YOU made is word-for-word "Goku transforming as an ordinary base form directly into Golden Oozaru shows how unrelated they are," (which doesn't even happen btw, ESPECIALLY if you consider Vegeta's case) I showed evidence contradicting the premise and now you're walking that back and whining about something else instead of just conceding the point.

Why would SSJ1 be a prerequisite at all if Golden Oozaru wasn't related to it? It'd be like if Kaioken was a prerequisite for SSJ1.

The answer is that we don't have one, and you can make any number of possible explanations without contradicting everything I've presented so far.

I think this is just saying that it doesn't follow in the conventional line of 1-3, which would be consistent with Chouzenshuu 4 linking SSJ1 to Golden Oozaru. Unless you address the points above, the statement is of no consequence whatsoever.

Which isn’t at all what I’m getting at. I’m talking about how Goku transformed as an ordinary child into an Oozaru directly, uncontrollably, on his first go.
(What's stopping Baby from just going SB2->GO and then back to SB2 without stacking the two if Goku could with 1->G?)
Baby isn’t in control of how the Oozaru transformation affects biology? We literally see it happen?
The argument YOU made is word-for-word "Goku transforming as an ordinary base form directly into Golden Oozaru shows how unrelated they are," (which doesn't even happen btw, ESPECIALLY if you consider Vegeta's case)
This is a literal lie. And you linked unrelated videos to it. Goku transforms as an ordinary kid. Vegeta is blasted in his base form into an Oozaru. He doesn’t go SSJ3 -> GO. It’s just Base -> GO/GGO, because it doesn’t operate within those bounds.
I showed evidence contradicting the premise and now you're walking that back and whining about something else instead of just conceding the point.
Wild thing to say. I’m not walking it back, because I felt the point I was making is obvious. You’re trying to establish a multiplier connection between the forms, which literally relies on the fact the forms are sequential and powered up versions of the original. Thus, me pointing out how this doesn’t work and how it is unlocked is completely different, not a sequential power up relying on prior forms but a separate thing from base, is what is being noted.
Why would SSJ1 be a prerequisite at all if Golden Oozaru wasn't related to it? It'd be like if Kaioken was a prerequisite for SSJ1.
SSJ’s power isn’t related. Golden Oozaru and SSJ4 work through Potential Unlocks. It unlocks dormant power. You cannot use SSJ1-3 to explain the power it generates, because it explicitly doesn’t work that way.
The answer is that we don't have one, and you can make any number of possible explanations without contradicting everything I've presented so far.
I know we don’t have one. I’m saying it literally doesn’t math out right. If it’s only 500x base, or 5000x Base, Baby would still be stronger than Golden Oozaru Goku. Your logic doesn’t actually work, because whatever you claim about Golden Oozaru for one applies to the other outside of SB2 itself being an additional amp.
I think this is just saying that it doesn't follow in the conventional line of 1-3, which would be consistent with Chouzenshuu 4 linking SSJ1 to Golden Oozaru. Unless you address the points above, the statement is of no consequence whatsoever.

No. It is explicitly saying it’s a different species of form. You’re just claiming stuff to claim stuff, now.
 
Cut out the accusations of 'whining'. Disagreeing and not immediately going 'you win' isn't whining. Keep it civil.
 
Also, upon review of the GT Perfect Files, they literally have an episode description list that implies this is Super Baby's evolution.

"Oozaru Baby image: Transform your appearance!! Super Baby Super Evolution!!
The strongest form
, transformed into a Great Ape by being hit by the Brute Waves!!"

This is noteworthy because "Super Baby" and "Strongest Form" are used as names for the evolved variations of Baby. For example:

"Super Baby's image: Baby absorbs the Saiyan powers of Gohan, Goten, Trunks, and Bra, and evolves into Super Baby."

And conversely:

"4: Super Baby - The pinnacle of evil!! A vengeful demon plotting to rule the universeBaby Vegeta's final transformation form is Super Baby!! There are two types: the strongest form 1, which retains Vegeta's characteristics, and the strongest form 2, which is reminiscent of Super Saiyan 3. His final move is the Revenge Death Ball, a mass of evil energy, or what could be called an evil spirit bomb!!"

Which, y'know, literally corroborates what we literally see happen on screen. "Super Baby" gets a Super Evolution. "The Strongest Form" transforms into an Oozaru.

No it doesn't, can you point to the part I said that or demonstrate why it would ONLY EVER have a correlation if Golden Oozaru was a direct powerup from SSJ3?
SSJ’s power isn’t related. Golden Oozaru and SSJ4 work through Potential Unlocks. It unlocks dormant power. You cannot use SSJ1-3 to explain the power it generates, because it explicitly doesn’t work that way.
You mean like how the same description is given for Super Saiyan 3??? Heck, you can make a solid case for every transformation working like this, considering how Gohan's Ultimate form is supposed to be a variant of Super Saiyan 2 which he activates the same way as he does SSJ, and even his regular SSJ2 is called his 'true form' by Cell.

This is also putting aside the fact that you ignored the point being made entirely, and are now making a completely NEW point on top of it. The point you've been trying to argue for is that because Golden Oozaru is a "different species" (more on this later) and because Baby maintains SB2 at all times that we should stack the full multipliers of both forms FROM BASE on top of one another, in a similar way to how SSJGxSSJ=SSJB. If Golden Oozaru already involves the Super Saiyan transformation, then you cannot say Baby stacking it on top of SB2 gives him a powerup quantifiably beyond 8x at best.
I know we don’t have one. I’m saying it literally doesn’t math out right. If it’s only 500x base, or 5000x Base, Baby would still be stronger than Golden Oozaru Goku. Your logic doesn’t actually work, because whatever you claim about Golden Oozaru for one applies to the other outside of SB2 itself being an additional amp.
Repeats the same point I already responded to in the exact place you're quoting again
No. It is explicitly saying it’s a different species of form. You’re just claiming stuff to claim stuff, now.
I started writing this response before you made your new post, but let's look at what the same guide says from your own imgur gallery.
5. Baby Great Ape
Super Baby transforms after being hit with Brute Waves 1,000 times stronger than normal! He is the ultimate warrior who combines the science of Tuffle with the power of the Saiyans, and has power that surpasses even Super Goku 4!! Judging from his golden fur, it seems safe to assume he is a warrior who has evolved from a Super Saiyan!!
Golden fur = evolved from Super Saiyan you say? Looks golden to me.
 
Why does this matter?
Because you're trying to correlate a multiplier based on the logic of how SSJ1-3 works.
No it doesn't, can you point to the part I said that or demonstrate why it would ONLY EVER have a correlation if Golden Oozaru was a direct powerup from SSJ3?

Except it's not unrelated, it's explicitly a combination of Oozaru and Super Saiyan (which 2-3 are just powered up forms of)

They become ferocious and lose all reason, but by regaining their reason as a Golden Oozaru, they can transform into a Super Saiyan 4. Goku, who regenerated his tail, by being bathed in Bruits Waves from sunlight reflected off the Earth while Vegeta and Vegeta Baby artificially became Golden Oozarus using the Super Bruits Wave Amplifying Machine.
Literally using the logic of it being connected to SSJ would in fact limit the buff to SSJ3 levels because SSJ3 is a powered up variation of SSJ, as in, the sequential nature of the forms being from an evolved root.
If he's permanently SB2 (his SSJ3 equivalent) and he's going Oozaru on top of that (as Golden Oozaru is explicitly SSJ+Oozaru, as per Chouzenshuu 4's description) then the multiplier he'd get is 8x Golden Oozaru, as that's the gap between SSJ1 and SSJ3.
Same here.

While I may word it differently, that is the crux of your argument.
You mean like how the same description is given for Super Saiyan 3??? Heck, you can make a solid case for every transformation working like this, considering how Gohan's Ultimate form is supposed to be a variant of Super Saiyan 2 which he activates the same way as he does SSJ, and even his regular SSJ2 is called his 'true form' by Cell.
"Ultimate Form is a variant of SSJ2."

That's blatantly not what it says. It says:

"GOHAN-TYPE: This Type is also called Ultimate Gohan. While his appearance doesn't change much from his normal state, his power surpasses Super Saiyan 2. He's a Saiyan who has achieved a Super Form different from a Super Saiyan, which puts a large strain on the body."

The only way to get your conclusion is to look at the picture and ignore how the words literally contradict your claim.

SSJ3 has a stated multiplier on top of it's ordinary description, so they simply aren't the same.

This is also putting aside the fact that you ignored the point being made entirely, and are now making a completely NEW point on top of it. The point you've been trying to argue for is that because Golden Oozaru is a "different species" (more on this later) and because Baby maintains SB2 at all times that we should stack the full multipliers of both forms FROM BASE on top of one another, in a similar way to how SSJGxSSJ=SSJB. If Golden Oozaru already involves the Super Saiyan transformation, then you cannot say Baby stacking it on top of SB2 gives him a powerup quantifiably beyond 8x at best.
No? Because Super Saiyan's relevant mechanics in the form aren't explained beyond the fact it is a prereq to attain the form.
I started writing this response before you made your new post, but let's look at what the same guide says from your own imgur gallery.

Golden fur = evolved from Super Saiyan you say? Looks golden to me.
You're right. It is golden. So the form is evolved from Super Saiyan. Hm. Except that doesn't change the litany of points I made before, how this passage literally implies it's the combination of forms, what we observe literally happen, how your conclusion literally cannot work mathematically, and how your point isn't supported beyond the fact it is a type of Super Saiyan, which we already knew, because SSJ was the Prereq to getting the form. It is a "Separate Species" of transformation, a separate species of Super Saiyan. This does not change anything.

Furthermore, to reiterate, the idea that it's limited to an 8x buff, working off SSJ3 logic, simply doesn't work. As I pointed out earlier, Baby and Goku's Golden Oozaru forms are identical outside of the fact Baby has SB2 on top of his. The gap between Goku and Baby is literally too big, because the numbers port over directly between them. And the fact the gap is bigger than that is supported in the show itself, because it's outright stated that the amp from Fusion plus SSJ3 for Goten and Trunks would not be enough to even faze Baby's power as a Golden Oozaru, and that SSJ4 is the straight up superior power.

Regardless, we're going in circles and backing up Ednaxel's thread. I merely appeared to contextualize why the multiplier existed as it does, how that argument was brought up and considered invalid in the multiplier's application, and that it is not a typo. Staff can decide if it is still accurate or not based on my and your points (because we're relying on them to apply this thread anyway) and the blog will change to suit that.
