FFXIV Has the Population to Support an ELO system for Duty Finder / Party Finder

[Driavna]

I'm genuinely curious why "Form a premade party" isn't a more reasonable and accessible solution to this supposed 'problem' in comparison to implementing an ELO system into a low-stakes PVE game.

Require effort, social skills and I guess we can argue that also require certain degree of compromise (if we are talking about premade with trusted players of course. A premade pug is still a pug, certain other MMO has filters/ranks and how good that run will go is still a coin toss). Click to do X is just that convenient compare to anything else.
