This actually doesn't happen that often. If anything, a lot of practice parties stay together for too long without recognizing that progress is impossible. The 3 strike rule is more common in clear parties, but even still pretty uncommon.
A much much more common situation is this:

Someone puts up a prog party for a mechanic late into a fight, like FoA in P3S.
Another player who has never successfully passed adds phase and still has trouble in phase 1 joins without saying anything, feeling they 'deserve' to be further in the fight.
The party proceeds to wipe for a full lockout, mostly because of that single persons whom everyone is too nice to do anything about.
Party disbands after leaving the instance.

Anyway, the most effective way to avoid problems would be to simply host your own party; That way, you know it wont disband randomly and you know that you won't be kicked, and can freely kick anyone who is toxic to you.
