Make a shortcut for the game.
Edit the shortcut and add the following command line switches (except your monitor res ofc):

 -window 1920 1200 -noborder

This does as you’d expect and runs the game in a borderless window. It might incur a small performance hit, but alt-tab is now instant.

Praise the gaming gods.
