You only did half the work :/ You're assuming that XP / Hour is the same in both progression tracks, which it is not.
You get more XP / Hour in Battle Pass as long as you leverage the character XP bonuses.

The battle pass takes approximately ~100 hours if you use the bonuses and get a few kills here and there. Which is a little over 1 hour of in game time per day.

For the average player leveraging BP bonuses, leveling Battle Pass 1-100 is faster than Player Level 1-100 by ~25ish hours.

Sorry but this is just not true. I just played for 6hrs straight and just barely reached BP4 whilst leveraging the bonuses. If you want these rewards (that you paid for), you're going to have to grind like a mad man. This definitely isn't a 100 hr thing unless you win every game you play perhaps.

You get 6XP/sec for surviving if you have the character bonus going, so that’s 1.3 hours / level if you do literally nothing in the match but live and never do a point of damage ever.

A little self promo here: I did the mathzzz. Short answer, no. Long answer if you played 2 hours a day and avg'd 6k exp a game it would take you upto the last day to hit 100.

Your math isn't correct. The minimum Battle Pass XP you can get from a 20 minute game (assuming you get the character bonus) is 7,200 XP (6/sec *60 * 20min). That assumes you do zero damage, don't top 3, don't play with friends, etc.

The biggest difference is the fact that every BP level takes the same amount of exp as opposed to the steady ramp up of the regular levels.

The next biggest difference is the bonus xp mechanics. Overall, it shouldn't take you that much longer than getting to level 100.

It should take less
