I feel Riot really hates One-Trick Ponies.
Starting with new champion select, problems arose where autofill needed to be introduced to avoid 30 minute long (or more) queues. Alright, that's fair game in higher ELO. However, we approach preseason 7, and we then have autofill enabled regardless of how many people are queued up at any given time and what ELO it is searching for. You get a simple two games of "safety," though it really isn't so because most OTP champions are restricted to one role or don't do particularly well in other locations.
