Coming from the natural sciences, I was really surprised that reviewers get to pick what they review! Despite the deeper problems discussed above, removing this glaring bug in the system would be quite easy. If editors have to choose the reviewer assignment may be less efficient, but at least editors have to think more about who would be a good reviewer, and mostly they also know the players in their field and who may have conflicts of interest.
