"Matching" in dating apps is old world thinking.
"Swiping" has largely replaced computational matching because it outsources the decision to the user and allows for high-through-put decision making. Users set a radius and judge everyone who meets their basic criteria in that radius (or for the lucky, select from the cattle-call of already received likes).
Yes, these apps could be limiting the raw number of swipe opportunities, but this would probably just turn users away altogether for lack of viable matches that fit their criteria.
