They went off and played something else, or logged into a second character should they have one.

You also ignored the example I provided. If someone sandbags by simply using only a small portion of their kit and getting hit by every other AoE, you have no recourse to report then. GMs will always err on the side of reasonable doubt. A mentor playing poorly isn't reportable. If it were, well... there's a whole lot of DR players who'd be banned by now.

Finally, they don't need to convince you. Just four players out of seven. While you may be petty enough to try and force them to stay, others may not be since they want to either clear or leave themselves and try again.

All in all, you're creating a far worse environment for new players by likely wasting several minutes arguing or dealing with someone who doesn't want to be there.
As far as I'm aware you cant vote dismiss yourself so the mentors always mess up by demanding to be kicked from the instance.. the last time it happened was un Ifrit Ex with a bunch of spouts an FC member of mine and myself.. they refused to help said kick them we said no they got this from mentor roulette so it was what they agreed to do by using the roulette they said it wasn't going to clear kick me or they'd afk.. we told them no again and then cleared with an afk summoner sitting dead at the spawn..

Also just because the fake a DC dosnt mean anything.. they have to log back in and when they do they'll either have been in the instance the whole time anyways or they'll have missed a clear.. either way they were still in the duty they were assigned to.

These mentors who sandbag always... ALWAYS say something about not wanting to be there or that the spouts can't do this content before demanding to be kicked.. even if they do a lame set of 123 combo that's still more then they do if they sit around an do nothing..

So no its not creating a worse environment for the spouts.. its teaching them to hold players accountable for the duty they get.. just like those guys who instantly bail from Castrium in MSQ roulette.. report and move on with you clear attempt
