Woah woah woah, I never said that thing you're all quoting me on! That was @Maximuuus, who I was quoting.
I have 0 fear that a pause like this would be like in Solasta. I love Solasta and the pop ups and think that BG3 should be more like Solasta, at least in how reactions are implemented.

Reaction options are more rare : Shield spell, Batte Master Riposte, and a few rare others. For many parties, there will be no Reaction options, so no pop-up: just a standard Attack of opportunity (once per round, so there is a choice there if many enemies are in reach).
Also the protection fighting style. My playthroughs have involved 2 fighters/paladins, which means I often get 2 "Do you wish to impose disadvantage?" prompts every turn. And even with that + Smite, I'd rather have the pop-ups than toggle reactions that proc on the first opportunity.
Exactly!!! The OPTION is amazing to have!!! MORE CONTROL!!!
