Well, the timer also prevents the difficult challenges in the game from being cheesed. Use LFG. Be social. Problem solved. LFG is filled with players at the moment. Don't like the people you met up with? Leave and try again. Not that hard. Not everything in a team based game is going to be accessible to solo players, nor should it be. Some of the best memories people have of this game are then achieving a single, challenging goal with all the people they met along the way, such as their first raid clear, getting a pinnacle weapon or Not Forgotten, or completing these hidden exotic quests. Those are the memories that Bungie wants to create in their world of Destiny. I still remember all those times and the people there. Considering all the options available to players in order to form a group, being solo is their fault. So don't go and complain when you're deliberately going against the grain.
