Why are standards seen as a crime in this game?

Actually, in Mists of Pandaria, WoW actually did lock the LFG tool behind completing Silver difficulty in a set of solo trials for each role you wished to use.

Where Bronze was so simple that it was basically checking that you had the game installed.

Silver was still pretty simple and was checking if you had an IQ with a positive integer.

While Gold was sort of challenging and required a little bit of thought (But was ultimately not necessary)

Though, this ended up being scrapped because it turned out that the majority of the playerbase was complete trash and found it too hard to beat Silver trials, because concepts like "Hit the bad guy" and "Don't stand in the fire" are too complex...

That was Warlords of Draenor they did that and it was for Heroic Dungeoun unlock and in case you cant remember clearly that failed bigtime and lost them more subs. It wasnt because the content was too hard it was because it was forced outdated content in order to do something current. At least get your facts straight before you start dropping narrative.
