Indeed. Other TB games have pause available too, so the whole 'it's TB so don't need pause' argument and the 'it will be costly extra programing for just a few people' argument are both total b.s. The current way of pausing is ridiculous and non-functional. A true pause function, limited to single-player, would be very easy to implement. Larian's unwillingness to provide it is not rational and baffling.
