Agreed, in general. Part of my attraction to playing on a computer (or, in my case, my phone). I can get through an entire game in maybe 15-20 minutes, withotu much loss of immersion. It just automates all the tedium, and lets you jump from decision to decision.

(I have had similar experiences with Risk, a game I find tedious in real life but fascinating on the computer, where the endless dice-rolling becomes instantaneous)
