Dota2 ranked

Can we talk about the state of ranked matchmaking? It's obviously not 50/50. I have an account that used to be my main, that I now only play when I'm drunk. It's about 2.5k mmr lower than my main, and it's an absolute shitshow. In DotapPus (the app) I often see the enemy team with around 60-80% winrate while my teammates are hovering around 50% and down. In my opinion it's so obvious that there are many more factors than the mmr.

I see this on my main as well when I'm going on win streaks, all of a sudden all of my other lanes are getting absolutely stomped. Then after a few losses my mid is owning 6 games in a row. Why have they built in this mechanic? How does it help vs smurfs/creating more fun match making? It's almost as if there's a rubber band effect that kicks in once you gain / lose enough mmr, and if you push through that boundary you're reset.
