Policy of truth has been around for a long time now. And valve has banned (sometimes temporarily) other tag violations. Same thing can be done for respawn times.
I also experience players who join and rage about respawn time. I always tell me it is how valve has set it and how quickplay requires yet. They don't care about that though "because other quickplay servers have fast respawn". Fast/instant respawn is much more detrimental to game balance than things like increased maxplayers. I don't know why they don't want to deal with this. Perhaps its because there is no easy automated way of detecting this, thus would take too much effort.
