We show that the phase tropical pair-of-pants ⊂ (ℂ*)n is (ambient) isotopic to the complex pair-of-pants P° ⊂ (ℂ*)n. The existence of an isotopy between the complex and ober-tropical pairs-of-pants was recently established by the author jointly with H. Ruddat. Thereby all the three (complex, phase tropical, and ober-tropical) versions are isotopic.
