Allow Killers to Leave During Endgame Collapse Without Penalty and be Replaced by a Bot
When the endgame collapse starts and it's clear you've lost, with the only thing left being survivors waiting to teabag you at the exit gate, you're left with two options: either go AFK and wait for them to leave or for the endgame timer to expire, or head over there and give them exactly what they want before exiting.
I believe there should be a third, more reasonable option that could also prevent this situation from happening in the first place.
If killers could leave the game during the endgame collapse without any penalty (aside from being unable to earn more bloodpoints for that match) and be replaced by a bot, this toxic, time-wasting behavior would decrease significantly. Toxic survivors could end up wasting their own time teabagging a bot if they choose to do so (and survivors wouldn't receive any notification of the killer disconnecting, similar to the 2v8 mode).
This would be like surrendering, allowing killers to queue for the next match without wasting time on a lost game. Survivors wouldn't be affected by the disconnect since they can already leave but are probably choosing not to just to waste the killer's time. Additionally, if someone is trying to complete an archive challenge, they could continue to do so without interruption, as the match wouldn't end until the endgame collapse timer expires.
If creating a bot for every killer is too complex, an alternative could be to use a stationary killer bot. Since many killers already go AFK on a lost match rather than walking to the exit gate just to get teabagged, a bot that remains still would produce similar results. This bot could have no collision, allowing survivors to leave if the killer tries to body block them before disconnecting. It would be fair for a body-blocked survivor to be able to leave after the killer has left the match, which should always indicate that they have given up.

Why not just punish people who linger in the exit gate to do this? Healing, waiting crouched, and being downed would not be touched, only if you teabag or wait there when the Killer's TR is clearly not anywhere nearby for long enough. This would also happen on hatch. Do this for long enough and a penalty would kick in and make you unable to leave or something IDK.

Or you could just. Run at them and swing your weapon? You might get a hit for more points, you might even get a down and an extra hook or even a kill from it. Either way, they'll be out in an eyeblink. If the Survivors are extra cocky, you might get a glorious moment like this. XD

Nah. This suggestion isn't much different than the survivors who off themselves on first hook. It's just being poor sports.
