Yes it is incredible deep. :-)

34.c4 is probably a better defense for white but in your line white is the
exchange down and I don't see enough compensation for that for white. The 34th
move is the first move where there are really alternatives for white perhaps
34.c3 as well but white is already worse on move 34 I think.
