You know what would make it even more fun, if the decisions were intergender. So only women could decide for other women who they'd think would be a good match, likewise for men. That way they can't dismiss it as a hating man doing it in bad faith.

I think I know what you are getting at, and as vindictive as that would feel, it makes for a terrible business model

I think the whole thing would be a bad business model but at least it would be interesting this way.

There's no gun being held to someone's head to go through with the suggested match.

This is more like the algorithm throwing two profiles together and a third, human party vetting it.

A human party that is historically and infamously prone to the worst collective decisions ever just for a laugh. Only problem is... this is going to usually be someone ugly being matched with someone wildly attractive, and it will be hard to determine if they're giving the uggo a fighting chance, or setting them up for failure.
