Fair preference. It's my money I pay to enjoy this video game and I don't want to spend a single second of it carrying bads who slip through the cracks.

Everyone can play any way they like.
Now, the issue at hand is that people have absurd requirements for content that's not particulalry hard or requires specific knowledge.
After not doing M+ at all thsi season, I started a few weeks ago again. At 462 ilvl I barely got invited to a +6. Ever since that I've been running my own keys so I don't have to die applying to groups. I don't give a shit about rio and invite people that have an appropriate ilvl for they key. The only key I failed was one where the healer permanently disconnected in a SotS after the 2nd boss, mind you, we finished the instance without a healer. So far made it to +14 without checking or requiring any rio or absurd gear.
My personal opinion is those things only matter when you're doing difficult content. Sure, check their IO, logs, etc if they're going to join you for a beyond 15 key or filling in a missing spot in your mythic raid team for the night. Guys who say they're checking IO for 10 keys or requiring AotC for heroic runs ARE being elitist asses. There's memes about this for a reason. Since you don't have a "depends on the content" option in the poll I'm not voting.
The most difficult thing to do is accept that there is nothing wrong with things you don't like and accept that people can like things you don't.
Its also not healthy for the game long term.
If people cant even get invited to a heroic Pug then why bother playing WoW?
"less bads is good"
Yes because people cant get better when they play more and experience more difficult content and get the taste.
Instead you need to have completed the content to partake in the content which is a chicken before an egg. Wonder why people dont bother trying to get into the game anymore and blizz are bending over backwards with game changes trying to bring in new players for once.
"Why should i care if others play or not"
Because empty servers are shit and its a multiple player game that is better with more people playing it.

Yeah finishing the run asap to use coins on the 1 or 2 pieces of loot you are after that wont drop anyway is way better than inviting someone who might die on a boss spell they hadnt seen before.
But ask yourself why are you even playing the game in the first place? Completing a gear check list? I prefer giving people a chance because its actually pretty easy to tell the difference between someone just wanting a carry who doesnt even have enchants vs the guy that is struggling to find a nzoth kill but regularly completes content most of the raid and does at least a 13+ M dungeon a week and is gearing correctly and would fill into the raid just fine and you wouldnt even notice a difference. And they might even learn something from you if you are all that.

Not at all.
People must identify their real life information before raid, such as,
How much money did they make last year? How much tax they paid?
Education and Marriage status
How often do they go to Church?
Their real life photos.
You don't want to play with real life losers.
You probably are an elitist. An elitist is someone who cares what others think of their achievements even if they lack them. They are the players that demand stupid requirements even if they themselves don't have them. It is an attitude.
Players should play with players of their own skill. They should also play at their own skill level. This is all fine and actually expected. You should use the tools available to find players that you will probably have fun with. This is not elitist.
Going to a non official fan site seeking validation in an echo chamber with an attitude of "lol, I'm so good, I bet someone will call me elitist" makes you an elitist.
This guy here is an elitist. It's an attitude. He sounds like the sort of guy who clears heroic, thinks he's hot shit but still pugs the first boss on normal for a lucky corruption item. Doesn't get it and then decides that because he is in content not designed for him he better tell everyone how good he is before leaving.
