I think you are focused on the style of dating (Quick hookups) where the person you are responding too is focused on the unique app feature that made tinder "Stand out" from the crowd (Swipe left/right).

It's that app feature which plays into the "exploitation" part of quick, responsive, immediate.

Right, but the feature only makes sense if the risk is low (quick hookups). There aren’t any meaningful signals; just photos.
