surely even if your statement that the quicker you gain size, the quicker you'll lose it - muscle memory will back it up once you restart

that stuff is crap, its just deluxe moisturiser. doesnt work a single bit.
2nded, and it also happens if you lose weight really quickly, throughout my pregnancies i moisturised 4 times a day and i still got em, depends on the elasticity of your skin, once its reached a certain point then it wont stretch and tears the tissue- giving u stretch marks
and a tan makes them worse cos its scar tissue so it wont tan

the general priciple is 3:1 to the rate of progression.
although is rate is applied to aerobic capacity on a regualr basis it also exists in strength training.
but in my experience it will be much lower maybe 5:1 or more for general sterength training.
muscle memory take a period of time, and refers more to muscle fibre recruitment than muscle fibre itself. although yes your correct, this will help

overload, progression and reversability.
remember if you get bigger too quickly, it'll disappear qickly if you stop training!
