Why are Opens random pairings?

Isn't the run as fast as you can without penalty really more about qualifying?

If 1st round pairs was base off of a "Q" ladder just how much faster could you run in 1st round than random pairing?

D5 to my memory has always been laddered. But I do have a question about index hit in opens. So does it count as far HP adds. With the new system it is somewhat confusing and I am easily confused....lol
