Surrender = quit
This is a wildly incorrect assumption which possibly derives from an insufficient gaming experience or a lack of understanding of the game mechanics. I'll try to explain it as simply as I can.
Surrender is a utitility in your invertory. You may use it in order to change the order
after your move. Doing so still poses a chance of being disadvantageous, since you need to use up one turn in order to raise the flag, while you normally might want to do something more useful, like simply inflicting damage to your opponent.
This is not equivalent to quitting, which alters the game
before you get to legally perform a move and breaks the game beyond repair.
I have played a number of 2v2/3v3 games where one of the players surrendered with the intention of helping their teammates. It has never crossed my mind to consider such a move illegal, possibly because I tend to focus on actually doing what brings me the closest to winning instead of constantly complaining about my opponents' way of playing
