The line the company tows here is that play style differences are not a significant enough event to warrant resources spent on moderating party kick situations that involve them beyond stating that position. Simply, Square Enix says that they do not take sides in such conflicts which results in the exact same outcome as if they were to side with the kickers, so it appears that they are siding with the kickers when they aren't actually explicitly doing so.
As long as it is not against the rules you can call it how you want. For me it is a valid reason, for you not easy as pie.
