Atleast OP used proper capitalization and punctuation. His comment was also somewhat constructive, while yours was just rude and unnecessary.

There are plenty of reasons to change how matchmaking works. SM is amazing at keeping twinkers at bay, as you'll always have a chance unless you somehow managed to lose enough souls to get up five tiers in the SM tree. However, twinkers don't exist in NG+, as everyone has the gear available, so having SM is pointless and makes it possible to level SL as high as you want regardless of opponents.

So if SM is active in NG and then switches to SL in NG+, then that's an amazing improvement where you don't need to worry about balance on either side.
