Why does it close the client?

[ReiganCross]

This is absolutely the last thing I care about.

At the least don't close the frickin launcher.

The Launcher closes once you get into the game regardless if you get booted out of the Client or not. I don't think that's actually a bad feature either, it's cleaning up after itself.

Although I'll admit that having a Launcher open where I don't have to input the password every time DOES also seem rather handy to have, I'll give you that.
