Improofing discoverability for those who want it is great.
Having it mandatory propably not.
Having a look how it's done in other projects is great to get ideas and to not reproduce same misstakes, if there are any.

A positive example how it can be done I found #hubzilla:
- plugin that user can turn on/off showing suggestions of whom to follow
- letting the user decide to not be suggested to others
- having a local searchable database where people can, if they want, be listed based on their interest, where they life...etc.
- it's everyones own decision if to be listed or not
- you can search within multible local database at the same time
