You are assuming people are very good. The assumption is that an AVERAGE player in ELO hell may not get out and the majority of people playing League of Legends are just that. AVERAGE.

There are plenty of reasons one might even end up in ELO hell beyond their own personal skill. For example, they may be put in a position on a team that they are not particularly good at because they were one of the later picks. Personally, I am very good playing supports, tanks, and offtanks but I hate playing carries and assassins because they are squishy and get focused hard in a team fight so I try to call it beforehand.
