Because **** you, seriously.
If the player has no isk, they get locked out of matches for an extended period of time. Wow, that's a steep ass penalty. I can't get behind that. Sorry, not sorry. We do need a penalty, but this is not it.
We should get one leave-early every 24 hours without a penalty. This could be because of a matchmaking weirdness where a squadmate gets omitted from deployment, or disconnection, or whatever.
After that, every time you leave-early you will have a wait time that increases exponentially; 1, 3, 5, 10, then finally maxing out at 15 minute wait time. During that wait time you cannot join any non-PC match.
Alternatively, CCP could implement a bonus that increase exponentially for staying in a match. After the 1st match of the day you get a 5% ISK bump from EoM payouts. The bonus steadily increases for every match you see through to victory, or bitter end. Maybe maxing out at 10 - 12%.

This could even be awarded per 6 hours; it can be tweaked as needed. These leave-early passes are put in place for circumstances like your squadmate being left out of a deployment...
Which, by the way, has occurred maybe once in 20 matches in my squads.
It's pretty ironic that you defend people who have "done nothing wrong" then state flatly that you will circumvent attempts to prevent AFK'ing, hide from the fighting, and leave matches early. For those keeping score, that is the opposite of "doing nothing wrong".

Mass exodus like losing Sha karn clone and players like him...
Mass exodus when we lost Lord Chaos and players like him...

Mass Exodus like we lost Djinn Kujo and Soul... And players like them...
These where community leaders that built entire corporations and events in DUST that escalated the game, the community and the competition in the game..
Now this game is largely a leaderless inactive pointless game completely based around public matches.
Some people enjoy CoD in space though? Everyone else said **** THAT and left. Wasn't Cubs banned due to RMT violations? Also, how can you assume that these "community leaders" wouldn't hate the idea of players leaving the game before it's over too?
As for your statement about the game being pointless, that's an entirely other issue outside of the scope of this conversation. That ties into the lack of core features and a connection to the New Eden universe... not if some doucher leaves a match because he saw a squad of FA on the other team.
