Controversial solution to survivor DC

Survivor DC in the beginning of the match is basically, a GG. The match itself is a waste of time for the remainder of the survivors. Understanding that the placement of AI survivors in the place of a DC is an incredibly difficult and complex task to just make happen, I propose a temporary alternative. To my understanding there is already AI survivors in place in mobile? that take the place of a DC. I wouldn't know the details of transferring that same process into PC/Console, regardless here is my proposal.

My solution: In the event of a survivor DC, the number of remaining Gens to be completed for escape goes from 5 to 4.

Additional details to prevent abuse: No gens above 50% completion must be active in order for the gen reduction to take place. All gens above 25% will revert back to 0% once the gen reduction takes place. There is a time limit of 3 mins after the trial starts for this protocol to remain active. After 3 mins, if a DC occurs no Gen reduction will take place.

My suggestion aims to make a 3 V. 1 scenario more fair and balanced. Frequent DC's are common and the penalty alone has been an ineffective punishment towards reduction. At least this way, the remaining survivors have a greater chance of escape in a more fair trial.

    It is necessary to make sure that if one of the survivors disconnects, then the others can safely leave the match without consequences

    There is a vivid example of DOTA 2 there is the same mechanics

    The game should be made safe to leave with no penalty if another player DCs. dota I think allows a 2 minute window for the player to reconnect and then announces the game is safe to disconnect from. I just registered an account here to see if this has been suggested and add my support if it has since i keep running into this exact problem. no i don't want an AI player i want to move on to the next match.
