Technical Analysis & User Insight:

Focus Mode effectively "pauses" applications. The OS greys out the launcher icon and suppresses all background jobs and notifications for the selected packages. This leverages the PackageManager to suspend the app state, reducing the dopamine feedback loop of constant checking.17
