Yeah your “nuggets” do research which is how you progress basically. Research though is just straight up time gated with no way to increase the rate. Most research items take 5-13 minutes. At most you can cut that down by half by increasing game speed by 2x. I have played the whole game up until this point on this speed and it still feels like I need a 3x or even a 4x.
I mean I get it - research takes time, but at least dress up a little with like “science points” or something rather than just a straight up time limit.

Time gated? That sounds fucking awful. Who puts time gated mechanics in a game outside of mobile garbage?
