   Begging economists and dating app designers to understand that the problems with the dating market are not a matching problem but a clearing problem. It's very tempting to think that if one could devise a sufficiently clever algorithm they could solve these problems but it's simply barking up the wrong tree.

         I think they meant post-match personal incompatibilities exist that can't be accounted for in even the most thorough profile
