It's not some black and white "all casuals are lazy terrible players". The vast majority of casuals are competent at their rotations, although maybe not so much the perfect timing and/or weaving of skills/cool downs.
There absolutely are lazy idiots and/or trolls out there, but the vast majority of casual players are those playing at maybe 75% efficiency; probably can't clear current-tier EX without a carry, but also probably don't care to do it in the first place.
We're not talking about those who play at 75% efficiency. There are people playing closer to 5% that's a problem. You're using a straw man argument. And I would love to see the game design and intention that accounts not for the mediocre player but the spectacularly bad player.
