"mathematical model...dust devils, water spouts, tornadoes, hurricanes, and cyclones"

Does it have little pink smiley faces that gobble up grapes and bananas?

According to the link, a 3.6F increase will make the storm 10 percent worse.

The Bailo Model includes other factors.   It assumes that if temperatures rise steadily, there will already be more energy "in the system".   That leaves less room for the heat differentials that drive extreme weather.  These higher temperatures actually stabilize weather (doldrums) in the sense that it takes a lot more energy to push it into a storm design pattern.
