So, which one are you saying? If you are within your NDL, you don't have a ceiling, so you can go straight to the surface, as fast as you want? I mean, you have tried to make the point several times that your NDL is not at all calculated based on ascent rate.
According to the dissolved gas limits of the model you can go directly to the surface. Of course that risks being bent all the same.
Or are you saying that, even if you're within your NDL, you could have a ceiling, which you COULD break if you ascend too fast (thus having a significant increase in chance of DCS)?
No, if you have a ceiling you are no longer within the NDL.
Say you are one of those nutcases that thinks that a free swim to the surface is a plan for running out of gas. The claim is that during a, so called, recreational dive this is possible because there is no ceiling. It would be a bit embarrassing to discover at 3m just as you have got to the end of a nice long 'ooommmmmmm' that you needed to hold a stop for a minute.
