MMR is great for competitive play. This game has some level of competitive play, and it might make sense there.

The remainder of the game (outside of PvP) is not competitive, and the measures one would require in order to determine 'skill' do not exist.

I expect that your judgement of whether a player has 'learned how to play rather than getting carried' is fairly subjective. It's one of the problems that highly skilled video gamers have to live with in any MMO that does not cater exclusively to them. (Which is most MMOs. There isn't enough money to be made by catering exclusively to high-end combat skilled players. The All-PvP-All-the-Time MMOs probably come closest.)
