There have been some slowdown issues reported on young NT hopefuls, and elsewhere in the forums. Here's a fine example from Astragoth: (199625.32)

Elastic effect. My then 22y old was popping just fine from 13 to 14 and from 14 to 15 in OD; pop every two weeks. However, he had DR 14 and HA 13.

Then again, for the first time in his "career", my U21 player needed 3 weeks for OD to pop (14 to 15). His DR and HA are both 13. But except for ID, he has low inside skills so maybe CT was bringing that down a bit. If CT had such a great effect like you are claiming to have from this example, my player should employ at least 4 weeks to pop in OD - and that's not the case.

I don't claim to know anything about CT for certain, as I don't believe we've had enough time to experiment with it to have enough data to draw too many conclusions. But there have been posts like Astragoth's that suggest that, at very high levels, it makes sense to stop training something for a while until the player's other skills catch up.

Exactly. But not only beacause of CT...also because of elastic effect.

I don't know how I am comparing oranges and tangerines... My player has 3 skills that are 12 or more levels below his OD and his OD wasn't affected so much as Astragoth's was. I believe that's what you were trying to say. And I say Astragoth's player's OD is so slow because of elastic effect and not because of CT.
