Oh, I wasn't ever arguing or making points in this thread.. Just hopped in to ask some questions. So I'm not sure who you are referring to when you say "your point was".

I think that there are varying levels of fairness, and while it's true that something can never be completely fair, there can be things that are more unfair than others. My two cents.

If the matchmaking system matches opponents that each have a fairly equal chance of winning, what's so bad about matching different types of opponents? A random team should typically have more skilled players vs an arranged team because of the randomness. It is like a 1v1 match between a player that always uses veggies vs a player that always uses adorables. The veggie player probably has more general skill given that the special is harder to ise effectively.
