If you hit a 200AH bank at 50% SOC with a current limited charger doing 100a, I think amps would taper right away. On my ugly graph that would be way to the left on the vertical where there is no constant amps stage at all.
It is still the old lower SOC at start of taper with a higher charging rate only now you have such a high charging rate, I think the SOC at start of taper would be less than 50% (at 14.x voltage)
I had an ugly graph somewhere back when I had the bank of three 27s in the cold at 50% and hit them with the big amps. No constant amps, just a taper.
Here is one--check A3 on the 27s when bank capacity was lower, increasing the charge rate from what it was at A1
