Does Obelisk Miner ever hit "another level"?

Been playing Obelisk Miner a good amount the past few weeks, I'm up to Obelisk 9. I can see there's still a good amount of upgrade categories I haven't unlocked yet, but so far, nothing has felt like a substantial paradigm shift, or something that allows me to blow through early levels significantly quicker each Prestige. The grind each Prestige does not feel like it's getting materially faster each go; there even seems to be a built in "max clear speed" given the short delay between clearing a level and the next popping up.

Magic Research is a great example of an incremental game that periodically evolves and things reach another level. You eventually unlock methods of generating resources that exponentially outpace prior prestiges, as well as entirely new mechanics that change the game. But Obelisk Miner has yet to hint at anything that will significantly increase grind speed, and the time from Tin to futility seems quite slow and the same length of time from Prestige to Prestige. Don't get me wrong, I'm making it further each time; but I'm not doing it any faster.

Am I missing something? Should I be prestiging more often? Is there another "level" to this game I have to look forward to?
