> Eg. Tiner allows in free mode only a certain number of swipes. Is it this what you mean?

Yes. The direct result of this is that other users have an arbitrarily limited number of opportunities to be swiped by you. A few users circumventing this limit (by paying to get around the wall) does not significantly raise this number.

Instead, it makes things worse, because a small number of paying users will get an outsized opportunity to swipe your profile! That's only useful if you are categorically attracted to people who pay for Tinder. Otherwise it is counterproductive to everyone involved.
