This may be true except for the fact that the poster said NO ONE is a total as it stands now. My guess is if it is lowered as suggested the largest group will still go into the next formal recruitment just below it, and they still can take their fair share of the "divided up always joiners" if a group goes in at total during a formal recruitment period, therefore going above total.
The problem you state is true, some girls would rather drop than take that undesireable house, but that's giong to happen whether or not total is lowered, raised, or stays the same.
