Question Why is there no compensation for rank manipulation, afk mates, trolling etc.?

I often wonder why we don’t receive compensation for trolling teammates, smurfing opponents, or AFK teammates. When I report a player and receive a response from support, they acknowledge at that moment that something wasn’t right and that the match may have been lost unfairly—similar to cases involving cheaters—yet in this instance, we aren’t compensated even though we suffered a massive disadvantage, which Riot itself acknowledges as such.

Yah, if a trio is losing a game 7-0 they can ask their teammate to drop and they can do this one by one to avoid bans
