The "advantage" issue is very prominent in the rules, trying to keep the playing field as level as possible. Obviously (?), having 4 players on the court against their 5 is not giving them an advantage, unless, as Ken implied, they are doing it purposely toward some unknown goal. If it's an effort to deceive, penalize it accordingly. If it was an "oops," pass on it and let the missing player return during a dead ball. Literally interpreted, it might be a "T," but common sense sometimes has to prevail.
