For the most part, people only use "Escape" when the game bugs out and you get stuck.  Most notably, boarding a boat at the wharfs with the infamous "Please try again later".  Yes, I'm aware there are other options, such as going to character select.

I don't know what the cooldown on Escape is, but it's pretty large.  PA shouldn't be time-gating us from workarounds for their defects.
