The editor is already selecting the best matched reviewers though, for any paper they send out for review.
They have more flexibility on how hard they push the reviewer to accept doing the specific review, or for a specific timeline, but they still get declines from some reviewers on some papers.

I try to be honest with the editors about why I reject the chance to review them. If I witness it more than a few times, they obviously aren’t being as judicial at their assignments as the ideal assumes.
