Yes, but under specific circumstances. It should 100% be enabled if someone doesn't connect or something (like if the client freezes, Rito). If it's after say 10-15 minutes, there are probably some other things that need to be considered so it can't be abused.

yes, but the issue with this is it creates a situation where more people are higher up in rank than there are at the bottom. and riot just cant have that, which is why they very rarely do loss prevention.

also it could be abused. in a pregroup with friends? "ok jeff its your turn, afk for us cuz we know its a loss", and suddenly their group is much higher in rank.

Last unranked game there was a Jinx who AFK'd until it was clear we were going to win anyway, and then rejoined the match at the end, when we were all level-16+
