I believe they have tried it before, and it did not work well on PC. The matchmaking would break from time to time and just take hours until find players.
They could do however, something similar to some other games where the stats of lower item level characters are boosted to an average, or to the highest item level of the group. Something like that would be pretty cool to make the game more competitive and balanced.
Personally i think it is the most disgusting thing in the entire game. Its just in almost every sense cheating. If you are in 30-39 pvp and you have all Rank 12 enchants and transcendants, you are not only spoiling the competition by stacking the odds in your favor, but you are ruining a great style of game play for beginner players. How do U get to gloat about a 212-15 k/d if you are essentially a hawk stomping a bumble bee. You're not a better gamer. You didn't out battle your opponents. You are simply a weak and lazy gamer that want unjust bragging rights. You don't take an F16 bomber to a knife fight.
Some of it is about bragging but I think a lot of it is also about farming glory for when they reach L70. Players are only in each band for about 1 day & the entire levelling process is about 10 days (depending on time spent).
Let's face it, where there's any kind of profit to be made, people are all (to varying degrees) selfish. Also bear in mind that most players who already have a L70 and are levelling a new character will use R7+ enchantments plus good armor & weapon enchs AND artifacts already at purple as it means they can bust through the levelling content with ease - when they bring this gear into pvp everyone gets 1-shot.
A fix for this would be auto-reducing stats on these items to suit the level of pvp match.
