Power Level and Rank Skip

Let's get this out of the way real quick: We don't really know what accounts for a player's power level. Most likely this is a combination of rank power levels (as described in https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/Splatfest_Power) with an Elo-based score evolution (as seen in splatfest and leagues) plus another factor that I'll detail later which is more linked to the team-based nature of Splatoon.

The problem here has several faces to it. We need to explain the following elements we can observe daily:

How one skips ranks even with cracks when one doesn't with no losses?
How the gauge increases differently for apparently random reasons?
How one gets cracks instantly and sometimes only after 3 games?

The starting point of my reasoning comes from what we could all see when splatoon was released or, more recently, when clam blitz came out.
