Tom-
No. The whole premise of the thread is the historical fact that BGLOs have not,by and large, engaged in mergers or basically acquiring strength through assimilating other orgs or chapters of other Greek-letter orgs. This requires an historical, contextual explanation. You have to explain the phenomenon!
I was simply offering my thoughts on why this phenomenon has occurred. Of course what you said has some validity but it has nothing to do with the particular issue at hand. And it's not grounded in a knowledge of the historical and cultural exigencies of NPHC groups and their ethos.
(When I wrote that previous bit I considered writing something to address the dynamics you brought up but it was not addressing the issue at hand, in my thinking,-plus I didn't want to write a mini-dissertation.)
