Never seen that except when someone wants everyone to follow them. But you should try and report them and specify the instance it happened in and what they marked you with and why you think they did it. Then if it is logged they might be warn them for it.

If you're good enough to notice that someone is bad, you're good enough to keep an eye on them without a visual aid. You will never convince me otherwise.
You're right. Most people don't notice someone doing something wrong by looking. They notice because of external aid. So you could mention that as your suspicion as well in the report.

It makes me want to quit the game entirely. So what to do?
I mean, I know how you feel. I have had a bunch of bad dungeon experiences, particularly when I was new to the game and hadn't cleared a lot of the dungeons, so they didn't understand I hadn't completed the map yet and therefore didn't know where to go.

Tanking used to have more nuances, so people would randomly insult over little things that don't really matter and then immediately exit the dungeon. Or I had a time where people abandoned a trial I needed to clear for the MSQ and had spent 40 minutes in queue for.

Experiences like this do make you want to quit the game, sure, but you get over them. The rules have also changed since then to be more generic, so that there aren't loopholes. Instead of saying "don't do this specific thing", they are extremely generic amounting to "don't be rude" and "don't hurt people's feelings". So if your feelings were hurt it's definitely a sign you should report them.

Unfortunately SE can't seem to understand that allowing blacklisted players to join you in PF is a bad thing.
They cannot join your PFs. But they can join a PF of someone else's that you happen to be in and vice versa because the person hosting the PF doesn't have them blacklisted. That isn't SE's fault. You won't see anything they say at least.

However, you can be matched with them in Duty Finder. I think they worry not being matched in Duty Finder would disrupt the search criteria too much. Either that or they are unaware due to the translation barrier.

I guess I just wanted to vent.
It does help to have a linkshell or discord where you can vent it a bit afterwards.
