   Cute. Of course, beyond basic deal breakers, neither do people know their preferences (but they think they do), nor do the majority of preference categories actually matter.

   This is a common problem with all dating apps. Specifically, interests, hobbies, daily routines, objectives, etc. have nothing to do with compatibility.

   “We like the same things!” is the compatibility signal of a naive 22-yr old…

      Sure, but you have to live in the reality of people's irrationality.

      There's no practical way to discover someone's "secret true preferences", baring seeing them enraptured by someone who happens to meet them.
