I can see why it's not a penalty.

The damage you may or may not cause to your alliance partner, yourself, and/or your alliance's chance of winning the match is its own penalty. Therefore, you have been penalized enough, and need no further penalty.


Or, to put it another way: That's your alliance's problem, now isn't it?
