I'm going to agree with you. Pausing/stopping time is the perfect superpower.

Definitely the most practical in real life (provided that you do not age or feel tired/hungry/thirsty while time is stopped). Need to get something done? Yeah, that'll take literally 0 seconds in the real world. All the unexciting things you want to do in life can be done without wasting any time. But, you could also do so much exciting stuff with paused time like going on a hike across the world or something.

Furthermore, it would be nice in a superhero battle. Someone turns invisible? You've got plenty of time to find them.

There are, of course, some boundaries that need to be defined for this superpower, but without a doubt, it would be awesome.
