For me it's a nice compromise. Premades already cause a heck of an unbalance that usually leads to rather boring games as it is. Now imagine 6-8 player premades, most if not all level 50 with voice com and all to meet a random pug with mostly lowlevel players. Is that really something you want to experience (on the dealing or the receiving end)? As I tend to tell people whenever such threads come up: Yes, I want to play and have fun with my friends. The more the better even BUT if the numbers turn things boring then I rather prefer the fun experience with just a few at a time.
