If that is true, then doing so when one gets stuck in the toast rack or cancels a launch sequence they made by mistake is also cheating and deserves the same; Correct?

True enough, and it makes sense to those that adhere to the RULE. However, the RULE as it is written written does not include exceptions. Perhaps FDev should update their wording of the RULE.The difference is the direct effect it has on other players experiences. From the "winning" sides point of view any ammo expended, any damages to their own ship instantly become a complete loss. That loss (depending on the circumstances) would have been cleared by the cargo/bounty that the player could have received had the fight come to it's natural conclusion.
There's also very little worse than seeing your opponent simply blink out of existence mid fight having had an "issue" with their internet connection.
The other examples shouldn't get placed under the same banner mind. It's more likely that players in those situations are going to use the menu log instead. Given that FD have stated it is a legitimate way of exiting the game at any time they are really out of scope for the argument. Those situations also have very little direct impact on other players if any.
What if, say, the ground unloads from beneath you as an SRV and you fall into the planet, or one of the many similar glitches that plague the game?Absolutely.

Ouch. Happened to me a lot with the AspX.What if, say, the ground unloads from beneath you as an SRV and you fall into the planet, or one of the many similar glitches that plague the game?
I have a trash PC for gaming so sometimes the game just decides I don't deserve a collision mesh.Ouch. Happened to me a lot with the AspX.
Totally relate. I play in a laptop Toshiba intel i5 with 8gb ram and a gforce 920M. Nothing to brag about.I have a trash PC for gaming so sometimes the game just decides I don't deserve a collision mesh.
