Incomprehensible end-of-game penalty

Why does this game give me a penalty when I haven’t even finished the game?
While waiting for the game to start, someone quit the game and the game was forced to stop after about a minute of lag in the waiting room.
I started matchmaking to try playing again, but I was penalized and banned from starting the game for 5 minutes. Why should I get this penalty? Actually, 5 minutes isn’t that long, but getting a penalty for something I didn’t do was quite an unpleasant experience.

happend to me before too. I think the devs should distinguish among pre-formed team and random team, and do not apply team-based penality to random team players.
