Problem is that would tank the citations or H score and then it would just exist for the sake of existing.

You can only win one battle.
And you have to choose what you push for.

This problem wouldn't have existed, had enough people migrated to open journals during the internet boom.

And if reviewers are not being paid anyway, they might as well start working with someone that's not a money sink.
Of course I can't say much in this regard, as I have never been a reviewer (probably not even qualifying), but I'd rather be associated with an organisation that focusses on giving a better service than on wringing funds and work out of all that deal with them.
