Technically it’s not a player advantage.  The AI actually runs 3x faster when phased.  I tested this by making an enemy ship run at 100x time scale.

Design by consensus always works out badly; try to please everyone and you end up with bland mediocrity.

Moreover you can't balance a game that has major gameplay mechanics being optional or heavily configurable.
You can already see this with the impact variable battlesize has upon balance in large engagements (esp. fighters)

Moddable, sure, you can even provide mods out of the box, but the base game's mechanics need to be concrete.
