I could make an argument that it should at least be an option in user-ran Portal servers. Considering we're never getting a server browser, and thus nothing remotely like what we had in previous BF games, the least that could be done is a checkbox at setup of a Portal server to have All-Chat be on or off. Maybe you're trying to test something out with a person on each side [and not over a voice chat like Discord] you literally have no way to communicate with another person.
Not even an ability to say 'Nice shot' when someone hits you with a recoiless in a chopper from across the map.

Those are valid points you make there.
I also thought it was nice to be able to shout out via global chat if you spotted a friends name in the enemy team.
Allchat scapped is because EA/Dice is scared to death to the possibllities that new wooke kids would leave this game (yup, they are sensitive), now there arent that much ppl
that are playing this brooke game anyway so...what the heck, it wont even matter ?
EA/Dice wont get it back into business because of this fact... its just simple a wooke thing (my opinion)!
