Does the matchmaker use SR averages only, or are there unspoken variables?

No. MMR is a single number per player.

Unless they do MMR different than any other game in existence, its not. Notice how he didn’t say anywhere in there that it was a “single” number, funny how a quote taken out of context can support a confirmation bias right?

Jeff did however continue on in the next sentence to say “It looks weird and mathematical” which would suggest that it is not as simple as “a single number per player”.

Weird and mathematical presumably means that it is a floating point number.

You say that I have confirmation bias, but your confirmation bias is to the point where you cannot understand the plain meaning of the text.

But here is another quote for you: “Anyway, this leads me to matchmaking rating…All the system does when it comes to matching on skill is attempt to match you with people of a similar number.” – Jeff Kaplan Overwatch Forums

But if you want all the quotes, see How Competitive Skill Rating Works (Season 15), references section.
