One of the things that I've noticed so far in BG, especially in the Gladiator Circuit Celestial+ tiers (that also @BeroMan pointed out) is that there are certain accounts trying to manipulate matchmakings in order to get easy points or win.
In order to do that, they start the search for a new match in both of their accounts and accept it only when they simultaneously get the "New match found" screen to accept or refuse the match, so they keep refusing new matches till they are sure it's amongs themselves.
What I'd suggest Kabam to do is to implement a max of 1 or 2 "Refuse" maybe each day to avoid that because I've been searching for a match for like 12 minutes now and got 6 times in a row "Match refused" which means that someone was clearly intentionally trying and match his alt (or modded) account.

Back out to cancel match making, otherwise just start the game when it matches you automatically.
The dishonesty and greed in people is depressing.
The “Accept” / “Refuse” should only come into play after it has been more than 10-15 seconds after you requested a match.
I’m sure people's attention can be focused for at least 10 seconds in the game without looking away or wandering off.
But else, yes, the Accept/Decline should still be used after a longer matching. In those cases, game really doesn’t known if you’re still glued to the screen, or not paying attention,
That said, before just implementing the fix... there are enough issues with connections where after you win a fight you get to the "black screen" and either have to quickly rejoin and redo the fight, or take a lose because you end up scoring zero points (this happened to me as recently as yesterday. Fortunately I won the other two rounds so this was only a "mildly infuriating" but that won't always be the case).
If you sit there waiting for a pairing for too long frankly I don't trust the system enough not to do something similar, and having one extra "do you really have a good connection" is at this point more important to me.
