Asobo, please do not continue to render the game after hitting ESC to pause

With all the long haulers leaving the sim running for several hours unattended while they are sleeping, shopping, doing the dishes and a ton of other stuff except looking at the costly rendered sim (something I will never understand, btw), there might even be room for a blackout mode that simply calculates the aircraft systems and the progression of the course without rendering any graphics as long as no one is looking at them. Imagine how much power and hardware wear & tear that could save.
