I agree with you. I'm perfectly fine with how phasing works currently. My reflexes are still too slow and I'd be furiously frustrated if I had to put up with fast moving things in the battle-map. I have literally wasted over several shots of torpedos, missiles and other weapon fire in a way that it either drains the ammo counters and/or drains flux capacity that gets my non-super-ships killed faster just because I am literally and physically too frustrated to do anything logically or calmly anymore after trying to play the game legit with no cheats, point being that its fun for everyone else but for me it's unfun exercise in frustration and futile anger management that self-destructs my sanity and brain cells to something along the lines of this:
Spoiler
TEAR THEM APART!!! MAIM! KILL! BURN! MAIM!! KILL!! BURN!! MAIM!!! KILL!!! BURN!!! And I know that I've said previously in the past that I haven't tried phase ships, up until now though as in recent month or two where I've been flying my take on the Event Horizon-esque movie ship which in my version of the game is in a form of heavily altered standalone version of a Hermit-class made into a bleak bulky monstrosity of doom, chaos and desolation for my leisure. For that super-ship I've removed the forcefield shields and replaced it with a powerful phase cloak to not only surprise launch a super typhoon reaper at the right angle and at the right moment but also because out of strong need to slow down on-screen mess and see what is going on and what is moving where, very slowed time gives me better visual info sometimes than the stand-still pause function.
Then again I'm not the usual player and so what majority considers boring or unfun or both, I call it either fun or necessary like cheating to give myself high-end stuff at the beginning of the game right away and casually wipe the floor with one of my super-ships from the collection to just relax and make things go boom into shreds and pieces.
EDIT: To put it shortly, I value my real life sanity, physical health and especially my mental health 10 times over more than giving a crud anymore about not cheating in a singleplayer game. Cheating and modding is a mandatory beginning for my unusual playstyle and sense of gameplay.
