Having a larger worldwide population to match with means matchmaking can do a better job of trying to find someone closer to your level. Playing any game with a high skill ceiling with IRL friends is what often just results in a skill gap too wide for either of us to have fun, and then who else can I even go play with?

And that's assuming anyone you know IRL even wants to play the niche games you love best.
