For business calls, a lot of them do end that way. Especially if I'm talking to someone down the aisle from me. 90% of my work conversations go something like this:
call coworker "Hey, it's so and so, I'm going to be delayed on site for 20 minutes."
"Alright, we've got a new thing in thirty minutes, so you're good."
"I'll call you if anything changes, but based on what's going on, I'll make the thirty minutes."
"Great, thanks."
one of you hangs up
"Great, thanks" is the appropriate version of "goodbye".
Besides, business calls are often harder to end than teenager romance ones.
