Ozma (3.3) was probably the first content that returned players to the field after falling. Levi, Rav, Bis and Seph all remove the player permanently if they fall.

No and no. All it does is waste the party's time for one person's mistake. If someone dies during several sections of savage there is a high chance of a wipe, but there can be a recovery. As bad as it can be in ARR Titan, that fight can be completed while missing members, including a tank and healer.

Imagine how long it would have taken to get weekly/first clears for Weeping City if players were removed for falling during Ozma. If permadeath was in Sophia EX, would she get new mechanics if someone fell? No. The only difference in mechs would be the party would have to open their eyes for pairing colors.

But above all else, players can implement this change themselves. Simply don't raise players that fall off and if healer LB3 is used, have the raised jump off. How many groups do you think do this? Of those, how many do you think do it while learning the fight?
