Yeah, Mid diamond is a nightmare as solo. It sometimes feels like 50% of the games, you get some Platimum/gold premade duo and 50%, you get some hardstuck Diamond 4s who hid their way up to diamond and now has way to low fighting skills to get out of D4 =)
But the problem is probably the queue times. S2 had about 4% diamonds and last season had 7% and at least I feel that ranked is generally much sweater this season compared to S3 so I would guess the number of Diamonds today is closer to 4% than 7% so lets say 5% for the sake of the argument. And if they were to separate randoms from premade squads, they ofc had to put solos and premade duos together (since you cant form a full squad out of premade duos without solos as fillers).
So that would mean a separate queue for full 3-premade squads out of maybe 5% of the ranked playing player base? Would probably take like 10 minutes for a premade diamond squad to find a match on EU and NA and it would be virtually impossible on the least populated servers.

@BabbediboopiSeparation has many different methods.
They can set another squad rank mode it work independantly or they can set a rp punishment to squad's every members as their ranks (for example 3 masters/preds need 100rp admission) to encourage pro gamer play random rank.
I am not a gamedesigner,I am a normal player,but i think current environment isnt fair to high rank random players.
By the way, even if Respawn do nothing queue times is still a big problem to random players after diamond 3,I will wait 3 or 4 mins after a game,even I have met some situation that i was left behind after a full queue,so i think it is another problem about rank systems.
