The hubble effect is constant if the comparison is between any two pairs of adjacent galaxies, one pair compared to the other, obviously controlling for distance between them. It's constant in that sense whether or not the overall effect is accelerating as it is at the moment. If the galaxies are independently moving in space, the distance to adjacent galaxies is changing, and has to be controlled for, to keep that constant effect. If you skip a galaxy and want the rate of expansion between a galaxy and the second galaxy along, then you have to add the two adjacent rates together, controlling for changes in distance caused by independent movement of galaxies in space. If you want the next galaxy after that, it's adding 3 adjacent values. This is why the hubble rate can keep on going, passing the speed of light barrier, and forever onward and upward. Because, and precisely because, it's not generated by a physical translation in space.
