This is a great idea, and it does make sense. It certainly is something that we would absolutely love to put into the game because it makes a lot more sense and it also makes things a bit more meaningful. However as you mentioned, the main issue is that it would end up taking way too long to find a battle, and it instantly cancels out approximately 40% or so of the players on the server for battles. Again though you certainly have offered a plausible fix for that issue, which could work, but there are still a few other problems that could crop up.
For example, if a player is neutral it would make sense for that check to be removed and for it simply to line them up against anyone. However this would give them an unfair advantage in daily competitions since every battle, they do not have the 5 second or so check to try and find someone of the opposite alignment. May not seem like much, but accumulated over loads of battles, could amass to quite a bit of time advantage.
You also have the issue of some people enjoying meeting people they know from the game or the forums or anything of the sort in-game, if they are of the same alignment, they are much less likely to meet.
All-in-all though, the cons are very minor and raising them is a tad petty since your fix to it certainly does account for most of the issues, it certainly is something that can be taken into consideration, however not sure how easy it would be to implement. Thanks for the suggestion!
