It's a bit narrow to lump all Tinder meets into the "random fucking" box.
I'm in an exclusive relationship now, but I'd used Tinder for years prior when I wasn't interested in a committed relationship and made many genuine connections as friends with benefits (and I'm still just friends with many of them today).
People seek different things at different times. I agree that hookups can be a bit shallow, but those aren't the only answer for physical connection if you're not in a relationship.
The feature you want would require dropping $38 for the lifetime 'Pro' version, but it's there if you want it.
