So if you're aware of the fact that positive feedback leads to asymptotic saturation
So does an open atmosphere, in theory.

what do you mean by "no off-switch"?
With CO2 causing warming, resulting in further CO2 release from oceanic reservoirs, in turn further driving atmospheric concentration, causing further warming . . . what's the "off-switch"?

You just said you understood the difference between positive feedback and runaway feedback. Yet you keep asking this question which applies only to runaway feedback. Can you briefly explain what you think the difference is?
