The paulxstretch completely obliterates phase component of audio input. Its not really way to do it if you want real output.

Define "real" in this instance? We're talking about audio manipulation, fiddling with time and frequency domain. Something's going to have to give

Phase is relative, you are trying to sound intelligent

As long as you match the phase of the positive and negative frequency components you'll get real output

Doesn't phase only matter if you want to mix it with some other sound? If you're editing the final version you're going to be playing, what's the point in preserving phase?
