    The game uses instances for dungeons and the like, instances only stay open as long as one person is there, barring the time limit ofcourse, but once no one is there they close to reduce server strain an lag on other players. Holding open multiple instances because someone D/C would bring the servers to a slow moving chug and that wouldn't be worth the strain on gameplay.

    Also holding a place would be abused, someone gets a luring trap or something and quickly D/Cs to reset the floor they were on. You might think it wouldn't happen but anything plays can find an abuse they will find an abuse.

    No. Holding one instance open while someone reconnects would be no more of a strain than holding one instance open while someone is actively playing in it.

    No. Holding one instance open while someone reconnects wouldn't reset the floor.

    I don't know how you came to these conclusions but they don't follow from how things actually work or how things would work if they were programmed correctly. And if you're basing your argument on an expectation that it wouldn't be programmed correctly, then that's a flaw of your argument, as things that aren't programmed correctly get fixed before going live or with an emergency maintenance shortly after.
