because they want you to struggle, if everyone climbed fairly, they'd have more time for other games

Matchmaking is not based on rank, it is based on mmr. You can be diamond rank with platinum mmr or even lower, essentially the game is seeing if they can lose to lower rank people. If they win they will win less LP and if they lose they will lose more LP to try to get them to the rank that their mmr says they should be at.

Besides, if you don't play against higher rank people then how will you perform once you get to that higher rank? If you got there without doing that then you would not be able to step up to them and just get smacked back down to your old rank.

Why is it based on MMR instead of rank? What's wrong with putting gold 3s with gold 3s and plat 2s with plat 2s? Why do we need a hidden MMR system?
