Battleground changes questions

Battlegrounds Updates
In this update, we are testing the re-addition of group queuing to Battlegrounds, where players of group sizes up to 4 can join the queue together and be placed on the same team. Solo players can join this queue, or they can join the solo queue to be matched exclusively with other solo players. With this change, we have also removed specific match queues to help promote overall queue health. We’ve also made additional improvements to Battleground matchmaking to help promote better long-term match making.

Hi, I have some questions about the above patch notes.

1. Will the MMR be reset for either the group or solo queue?
2. What are the "additional improvements" in bold above?

Given that we will only be able queue for a random game mode, I hope ZOS weights matchmaking to favor deathmatch. Hopefully, ZOS has the data to show that players select deathmatch far more often than the other modes. I would hate to only be able to play deathmatch and average of 20% of the time once we are forced to queue for a random mode. ZOS should make death match come up about 50% of the time for matchmaking.
