I agree that both sides should be getting the exact same amount of resources (gold) no matter how many players there are.
The problem with balancing for leavers is that early leavers (within first 5 or 10 minutes) is actually an advantage for the short-handed team with leavers and late leavers (after 25 minutes) is a huge disadvantage for the short-handed team.
Thus if you are 3v5 from the start and the team of 3 actually has a good chance of winning due to less XP sharing and more gold. If they can get some kills and an early decent tank the effect snowballs like it was a game in HB mode.
If there is going to be a balancing formula it needs to take into consideration what time the player left. I'd suggest a not giving any advantages to a team who has a leaver within the first 5 minutes.
