Disconnecting and the game closing or terminating is a REALLY bad design

There are a lot of situations where I have to leave the game and be AFK due to IRL things to do. I understand that it’s okay to be booted to make room for others since I’m AFK but isn’t it really BAD design to simply terminate the game especially because it takes at least 2-5 minutes for the game to even launch. It baffles me why the game even terminates when you lose connection. Just send me to the start screen. Any time I lose connection because of the servers dying or because of my own internet problems it just bots me out of the game. This is more frustrating since I have to wait an hour to get into the game anyways because of the BOTS infestation. All in all, why can’t the game just boot me tp the starting screen and not restart when I lose connection for whatever reason?
