The 2002 error can sometimes keep your place in the queue.

I've been dropped for the 2002 error to the desktop and logged back in and was able to get my place back in queue. Once even after a few attempts resulted in 2002 errors to connect to the data center

Other times not.

Nothing obviously different or same between the instances where I kept my place and the instances where I didn't.

But I do agree with the error just kicking back to title screen instead of desktop. That would help, especially for those who use a 2FA.
