but the equation with a pure jet would be a bit different

Quite probably - last I looked, the typical profile for time to height was something like

(a) 0.9-ish half loop and roll off the top

(b) transonic acceleration in a shallow dive

(c) from whatever the magic speed is for the Type, zoom to height.

Best climb ANGLE will give you the most clearance over a close-in obstacle

.. granted but largely immaterial for the typical small GA single.
