Activision secretly experimented on 50% of Call of Duty players by 'decreasing' skill-based matchmaking, and determined players like SBMM even if they don't know it - eviltoast
The experiment was just one discovery of a 25-page paper covering how SBMM works in Call of Duty.

    I personally don’t hate SBMM, but I hate that it is the only option in modern competitive games. When I want to sweat, SBMM is great.

    But sometimes, I want to goof off with other people. I want the option to play de_westwood pistol/shotgun only server again if I so choose.

    I want a little bit of control in my gameplay experience. Nowadays, it’s either ultra try hard or people not giving a shit mode, nothing in between.
