The question in the title is, " Can one move up too fast?" and the answer is, oh, yes, one can! But I"m not sure you are under the present circumstances. Sounds like your assignor is well aware of your strengths and weaknesses, and knows what you can handle. whether or not to talk to said assignor about your movmennt up the ladder depends a lot on that person's personality, and the relationship you two have. Some assignors would see your reticence as a sign of weakness or inability or they may just dislike the circumspect approach. Others weld be delighted to have refs that have a sense of humility and self-awareness. You have to decide what's going to be best in your situation.
