That is simple to explain: People who speedrun do not really enjoy the content and just want the rewards ASAP, thus, every second spent in there feels longer for them than for people who happily take the extra time to clear everything.

Personally, my own upgrade from +19 to +20 was on floor 23, where my level was like 34 - definitely a far shot from 38. Also heard about people getting their +7 upgrade on level one after resetting and one guy was jubilating over his lvl 30 upgrade - on Floor 42 at level 59. It doesn't quite add up with the theory that it depends on level, so I'm a bit wary myself. I'm not ruling out that the level can be a factor, but I'm disinclined to believe it's the only one that matters. That goes against my own experience.
