winning 1 buy-in per hour is reasonable if 4-5 tabling.

That's 50 PTBB over 250-300 hands, or 17-20 PTBB/100h. I've seen some say that 10-12-14 is sustainable at $25, but I haven't seen anyone say 20 is doable except by those who are currently playing $100+. I think a 17+ PTBB/100h winrate is a lucky streak, cuz I haven't seen anyone mention it as sustainable.

20PTBB is not sustainable over a couple of hundred thousand hands. Anyone who hits a streak like that for 10-20 thousand hands moves up to the 50's.

I'll like to say one thing about bankroll management. Ideally, your bankroll should be separate from what you need to live. You should be able to go on super drunken monkey tilt and lose it all and not have it affect your lifestyle (your poker psyche would probably be destroyed, but that's another topic). You will never play optimally if you are not comfortable putting your buyin all in with an OESFD. That's how I gage whether I am ready to move up.
