Like I SO BAD want to send anyone 'not getting it' to an amusement park completely alone, enjoy the rides, enjoy the cotton candy etc but the catch is aside of the sound of rides operating themselves all automated; you're COMPLETELY alone. If you can really get with that idea, you'll quickly understand why CC is mediocre--going to an amusement park, alone, is also mediocre, BUT anyone can see how amazing it would be with friends and family along, with you, for the ride.
An amusement park has NOTHING to do with PvP. This is a stupid comparison. We already have a "team based mode" to play with your friends. It's called frontlines. Do you need your friends to hold your hand in every piece of content possible in this game? I don't. Go ahead and hurl insults at me, I don't care - It just proves you have zero arguements to make, and that you have no intention of understanding why there would be a major pushback against it.

You can say "Oh it'll be balanced we'll just make the premades wait in queue for 15 minutes while another premade puts itself in queue for a fair match"

-Nobody is going to sit in queue for 15+ min for a duo/trio match, and we'd have more whining and complaining on the forums about how long it takes to queue in.

-It'll never be balanced because the premade groups will always have superior communication, especially if they're in a voice chat on discord.

-Newbies and the community at large Do not find CC fun, or enjoyable. Premades aren't going to change that. You can pound your chest as much as you like. Go ask some players in major cities what they think of CC. The answer is usually "I don't PvP", or "PvP is awful." Playing with your friend isn't going to make that any more enjoyable.

-Coordinated premades are just going to farm all the series XP and wolf marks they can at the expense of everyone else. Something nobody seems to care about, y'know the OTHER people who are filling the spots in your matches?

-"Just do ranked, lul" No. What if I don't feel like putting my rank on the line? What if I want to try out a new job? Should I just submit myself to the pummeling of premades that would infest casual? No thanks. There is nothing at stake for a win/loss in casual. It's a more relaxed atmosphere to practice jobs before ranked. I DO NOT WANT premades in my casual matches.

-Frontline 4man queue exists. Oh, you don't find frontlines fun?! Well thats the price of saying "That mode doesn't matter, it's just random casual nonsense. Let us do whatever we want to it."
