The other massive factor is how much runway you have left when you get airborne - it effectively offsets the glide path 'under' the climb path. For that reason alone I don't think you can come up with a single height for a turnback, even on one aircraft. There's a minimum to make the turn sure, but after that it's a question of circumstances.
