    I do agree. I also understand why it's designed as it is, but this should be fixed. When the entire party is formed before entering Duty Finder, it does not enforce the class criteria (typically 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 DPS). As such, if you start a four-summoner party or something, there's not really a good way to handle anyone joining that group via the Duty Finder's present state if one of the original members leaves.

    At the very least, I would strongly recommend checking party configuration in this situation to see if it already matches the template configuration anyway. For example: I had a paladin, white mage, monk, and black mage. The monk left after the first boss, leaving us short one DPS. Our group still had 1 tank, 1 healer, and 1 DPS, though. There's no reason another DPS shouldn't be able to join.

    A step beyond that would be to allow people to actually fine tune what they want (things like one tank for Titan or selecting what specific jobs they want rather than roles). But I'll happily settle for the first step for now.
