I appreciate your alternate viewpoint, and I can see why this might have some value. That said, given the mix reviews of certain third party agencies, I wish then at least there was a way to select which sellers should be included in the prices on the first page of search results.

This is similar to my wish that there was a way to exclude basic economy fares. Giving the user more control allows us to compare apples-to-apples on our own terms.
