Worryingly, the observed energy imbalance is rising much faster than expected, reaching a level twice that predicted by climate models, having more than doubled within just two decades.

At some point you would expect 2X imbalance to be 2X temperature change rate. The climate system has all kinds of hysteresis, but eventually the system has to find a new setpoint and jump to it.
