Yeah, my example using a 5's team wasn't clear. If all the players on that team reroll, what should have been a 1900-2000 team is now being matched against 1500 teams. The problem with the new average rating mechanism is that it is pointed in the wrong direction.

However, ignoring rerolls, a 2's team with one 2k player and one 1500 player, that averages out to 1750 (coincidently the glass ceiling a lot of people bump in to). So that argument applies too.

It just seems like the general wrong direction for Blizzard to move. On one hand, there are new impediments to my gear advancement in arena, but on the other hand I can expect to face even more people with the best gear.
