Supposedly Quick Play Matchmaking had a fix for solo players - after initial implementation there was a bug and then it was redacted, yesterday it was reinstated and supposedly fixed. After playing a few rounds with 1 teammate I noticed we kept matching 4 stacks nonstop. I then played quite a few more rounds and noticed as a solo I matched a 4 stack every round again. No they weren’t ‘easier’ and did not provide a lesser skilled team overall.
There must be an issue, once again, with the matchmaking as prior to the MM fix I was having quite a bit more matches with less 3-4 stacks.

Literally ran in to a 4 stack "practicing" for competitive. Thanks Bungie.
