The naming sense and flavor descriptions are... very edgelord.
Ignoring that, I did find a bug in prestiging, for a brief moment you get a ton of exp gain on whatever you happened to have been skilling up (and the first job) based on your last prestige. This includes leveling up skills that you shouldn't even have unlocked yet through exploiting this bug.
Since it seems tied to the automation mechanics, a simple call to stop automation for a second or two while the xp gain gets cycled through post-prestige should fix it.
