GH almost certainly increased along with KH.  Total hardness by most
definitions is the same thing as GH.  GH isn't directly related to CO2 or
pH and there's no necessary relationship between GH and KH.  Hence there
wasn't much need for the original question to address GH.

You were right on that point.
