And by the way, you're probably right, there can't be progression of Punk, this genre is opposite of Prog by nature. However, we can appreciate Avant-Garde Punk groups as they are much more closer to how we understand Prog.
Absolutely untrue.
Progressive simply means evolving into something new or going foward. Punk didn't lack in innovation and it spawned off into post punk, new wave and alternative rock which all produced some very progressive music.

At the Drive In did this with their last album, Relationship of Command. Very clear and defined prog rock influences in the sound. Perhaps a step further of this was the band Refused, with their album The Shape of Punk to Come. Fundamentally a hardcore band, but musically it was a mile away from straight out hardcore. Challenging arrangements and musicianship and extreme levels of creativity going on.

Poor people, blinded by genre.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Oh yeah, taking the best from both Punk and according Prog genres into raw, wild performance. With even weirder lyrics, which most of you won't (sadly) understand.
I don't understand them, but they have English translations on their website

The Boredoms have a punk aesthetic. And Iceburn (who are not on the site but definitely should be) started out as a hardcore outfit with horns and got increasingly RIO/Jazz-fusiony and generally wierd and spastic.
Also there's a punkish band called Titus Andronicus who just did a concept album about the civil war called The Monitor. Ends with a 14 minute song called The Battle Of Hampton Roads which is very prog, even has a bagpipe segment.
The elephant in the room is Green Day's last two albums which were both concepts. American Idiot has two 9 minute songs, both quite proggy with multiple movements, Jesus Of Suburbia and Homecoming.
