The correct way to continue the (2/3/6/10/20) progression is:
1/60 is -35%
1/100 is -40%
1/200 is -45%

When a desired value (i.e., 1/180) falls between two limitations, you should use the value for the lesser limitation, not the closest (you haven't taken enough of a limitation to earn the higher point break*), so 1/180 would be -40%.
