OkCupid recently added filtering features to inbox, to filter away messages under X word count, or match % < N. I think this is just a more advanced version of that. I think the time spent on the top of the online dating funnel (browsing often-misleading profiles, reading their essays, and trying to start a conversation that either results in no response or an offensive dismissal) does not contribute to personal development OR enjoyment in any way, so why not minimize that time, so that a person can focus on the human interaction that comes after?
