Its a squad based game because respawn has made that decision not because it has to be this way.
Every other battle royale has a solo mode and it works in all of them. It would work in this game as well but the reason they gave is an excuse for why they arent adding it into the game
To be solo mode, dev can't simply change from 3 players/team to 1 player/team.
They have to redesign, rebuild, recode, test the legends to be suitable to solo mode. If you're coming from game developer world, you know this's is a significant effort. Could take at least 6 months to properly create it.
If they finally create one after investing in a big effort, time & money, will this mode give more advantage?
1. Give uniqueness compared to other BR that make Fortnite player play Apex? Might be yes/might be no.
2. Give significantly more players? Probably yes but not sure how many more, 5%, 10% or 20% more?
3. Give more revenue? Not sure how.
The most important answer is an answer to Q#3. If you know how, tell Respawn, then they will build it if the money is there.

Dude i really hope you're joking because that is the only way i can take your post seriously. Tell me you're joking please
Some legends passive need to be modified for solo:
1. Lifeline passive : Combat Medic
2. Mirage passive : Encore.
Do you have idea what would be a great passive for them?

Good point. Knock shields other than gold would be useless. Would they be left in?
Wraiths portal would be a lil awkward but still useful I guess
People would prolly use around 4 characters 95% of the time as well
The specialty of this games characters would make solos awkward to be sure
