Remake and no compensation

So here my thought on the remake systems. Last night at 2 in the morning I decided to play a game but unfortunately, the enemy team had a afk so they did a remake. I lost time waiting in the queue, time in the loading screen and then the wait time before they can actually do the remake. So here I am right now, I tried another ranked game 20 minutes ago but again, the enemy team had a afk but this time I had a double kill right before they do the remake. It's just tilting to play a game where when there is afk you get no compensation for it, I mean I just lost a good 10-15 min waiting to play, maybe you could punish harder those who afk and also compensate for the time wasted, +5lp for everyone except the afk.

I mean, this is unfortunately something that would not work because compensation for time lost doesn't fit well with League for multiple reasons. I know it sucks but it's simply not feasible for them to compensate when the enemy remakes, just as they don't (and can't really) compensate for dodges.

The player causing remakes is already given a full loss in their match history and loses full LP for it, while nobody else has any effect, whereas if the game had gone on and they reconnected it could've gone either way. I think a neutral ground of no gain/loss for anyone else is perfectly reasonable, even though the lost time does suck.
