While 4 hours is a pretty long time between initiated votes, I can see where it's coming from. I've played a number of other party-based games that had a vote-to-kick option without a timer and was it ever abused. MGO it came up repeatedly if people thought you were 'sucking', sometimes even on the room host if someone didn't like the match rotation! Give people a button, they are want to push it. If it's a button that can ruin someone else's day, they are want to push it all the more. With this timer people have to really weigh the option of pushing that button or just soldiering on. It only helps to promote teaching bad players how not to be bad.
