Question for native English speakers: do you think this technique is best described by “progressive unpruning” or “progressive widening”?

By neither.

Allow me to suggest a third alternative, one which I believe to be best,
"progressive grafting".

Just as a gardener "prunes a tree", so the horticultural metaphor is continued,
broadened, by describing the _addition_of_a_branch_ to a tree as "grafting".

See  <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafting>  for the ordinary-English meaning.
