Or, go the way of solving the issue as community and encourage people to boycott FL whenever a coordinated premade comes around. With a bigger playerbase, that's not really an option, but since it's so small, that can be very effective - just gotta make sure the message is clear. If the premade doesn't realize the boycott is because of them, they are unlikely to change their behaviour.
It's not an option in the current community, either. If you don't want to play when the Balmung and Gilgamesh activity surges, you likely won't be playing at all. Played them this weekend when I queued for the first time in ~2 months with an FC mate and at least our waits were under an hour.
