IMO, there's some simple solutions to this issue and what they are depend on your workflow.

If you're a JPEG or mostly JPEG shooter:

I quickly realized you basically MUST shoot auto shutter speed with auto ISO (i.e. aperture priority) to allow proper use of the EV dial to control exposure. Shoot in this mode and all you have to do is make sure you're in the ballpark correct auto ISO mode for your shoot conditions.

If you're a RAW shooter:

Set it to base ISO and don't worry about. If it's dark and you need the shutter speed, set it higher. Be free.

Either way, easily solved. None of my other cameras have ISO dials and it's never bothered me for RAW shooting because ISO is basically irrelevant for RAW shooting.
