Interesting Side-note (Destiny)

I think skill-based matchmaking at that point would go against the nature of the experience :)

Not only this, but skill-based matchmaking would turn Trials into a sideshow of deranking. Previous experience in Halo has shown you can't have a system of progression based on wins in conjunction with a TrueSkill-style system. The goal of a skill matching system is for all players to reach a 50% win rate. That wouldn't function well with how Trials is implemented.
