"kills the immersion".... I know it's not the point of the post, but.... Man, I hate that phrase.
Frankly, I think Proxy chat is the one that ruins immersion. Nothing says "immersion" like an Awoken Female Hunter talking like Barry White, or Human Titan whose voice is cracking.
Now, my question: Does anybody know how complicated it is to add a proxy chat option to a game? Wouldn't they need to test the distance proxy chat would work, plus the quality of the crappiest headset to avoid people being muted on principle of bad quality?
Even with an option, it's still 7 seconds or so to turn off or mute, which is 7-12 seconds of time you could be getting back into the fight.

Ruins the immersion? What ruins the immersion for me is that I know there is a barrier between me and other guardians that Bungie set up to protect kids, in the form of no voice chat
-
You're kidding..... I can spend 2 hours with a complete stranger, exploring the finer details of Old Russia (and coincidentally being rewarded with loot crates), and use nothing but points and waves, and have a blast. Ain't no barrier there, you just have to learn to use your actions, rather than your words.

Now I see why the game is rated teen
-
Heh, nah. It'd be rated Teen if I threw a slurry of offensive words at you, and refused to use things like commas, periods, and other grammatical symbols. Sorry, man, but every Halo multiplayer I've ever played (excluding Halo 4) always had at least two bad apples in the battle-bunch. The Crucible would be no different, except now it would spill into the main game as well. If you're interested in talking, do the mature (perhaps not to be confused with rated M for Mature) thing, and send a bloody message to the person you were impressed with. They either won't talk to you, or they might do the polite, mature thing, and respond.

You wouldn't even have to go mute individual players if there was a default "mute all outside of your fireteam" button. That way we both get what we want.

I think if small independent games like dayZ can figure it out it should be a cake walk for bungie.
