I think devs should focus on shortening the gap between solo survivors and SWF.
I have nothing agaisnt people who want to play with their friends, because all, or most of them just want to have fun and it would be absurd to hold a grudge against them. But the simple fact that they can communicate it's a massive advantage over a solo player, or even 2 duos.
If they don't want to implement any form of chatting into the game because this "it would ruin the survivor experience", which is completely valid, we would need other form of communication like some form of alert or ping system which could be binded to any button,or something like Counter Strike with their radio commands(x-1 or z-1, etc), and with sound cues and colors for different situations like, the "killer is with me", or "rescue me, now is safe", etc, for not having to react to a whole message but to specific and recognizable patrons to communicate. Also a form of cd for every command and muting would be necesary.
But that's only a suggestion, if you have any other form to effectively shorten the gap between solo and SWF, it would massively improve the player experience. It would be the same for SWF, and a lot less frustrating for solo players & killers at all ranks.

How is this better for Killers?

It matters how you play swf. If you go tryhard and concentrate fully on the game, constantly pinging your own and probably the killers position to your teammates, getring all the great skillchecks and going for good chases, you will win. No matter which killer you are facing, except spirit. If you talk about food with your friends, you are nearly the same as solos.

Never said playing survivor is easy, but survivors got the highest skill ceiling in the game.

It will be better for killers if they balance the game, maps and killers having solo and swf players with communication, so there wont be distinction (or at least not that big like is now) between both groups and will be a lot easier when it comes to making changes for killers and survivors, without affecting negatively only solos or only swf.

Honestly, if survivors can start pinging me like it's COD i'm quitting. No way to win at that point.

By pings i didn't mean like pinging your specific location how it is in idk, LoL, but just to mention like a swf would do like "near bassement". Also that's how i feel when i play agaisnt swf with good communication.
