We don't even agree what "developing a better roster" means by the looks of it.

And may be you never will, because if matchmaking is based on roster then "better" roster will depend on MM algorithm. And algorithm-based optimizations/exploits (aka sandbagging) may even become more important than pursuing meta teams, actual roster development, etc. Or may not, it depends.

"building a better roster" is the constant in the context i used it in, it doesn't change with how matchmaking changes. Point being that No_Try would like to base matchmaking on his idea of what "building a better roster" means, not the other way around.
Before TW, or mainly GA, there was no matchmaking in swgoh, but you could still build a better roster.

If, however, MM algorithm is based purely on actual player performance, this allows you don't care about it and develop roster purely around building better squads, counters, etc., as it should be imo.

There's something logically wrong with this paragraph. It's impossible for matchmaking to be purely based on actual player performance, but also allows you to build better squads, counters, etc etc.
