That person is going to reconnect and get kicked and told that he is in a reserved slot.  He's going to find out that it's more work trying to get into the server and go somewhere else, thus losing a potential regular.  People that have never joined the server before will see that the server is full and not even bother connecting, thus losing a potential regular.  People with the server list filter on to filter out full servers will not even see it, thus losing a potential regular.

People wait to connect so that they can play on that server which only makes it grow in popularity. This is why I don't see a problem, especially if Tea is banning during this time.

I do not see a problem with Mr. Tea in Spectator banning people.  Like I've said at least twice before, this is not the issue.

Technically, the standard way a reserved slot works is that it will boot the most recently connected player when the server is 42/42.

So you're telling me when I see a server at 42/42, it means the server just hasn't kicked the most recently connected non-reserved slot holder out of the server yet?  Because, from what I've seen, no one, while playing, gets kicked to make room for a reserved slot.  I only notice I get kicked when I try to join at 40+/42 because I joined in a reserved slot.  If the former is false, then you contradicted yourself because, "technically," since you cannot join a server while it's full, no one will get kicked to make room for you.
