I don't doubt that. But when a chapter of the IFC/NIC fraternity is also on campus, I would venture to guess that the alumni support might very well be diluted. Some will be loyal to the disaffiliated group, others to the IFC/NIC chapter, and others to both. Given the resources that the national can also pour into the chapter, it seems that the disaffiliated group might be perceived to be at a disadvantage.
Now in addition to alumni support, what are the advantages - real or perceived - in joining a disaffiliated group of ABC (The A Society) that is not recognized by the campus when there is an active ABC chapter - that is recognized by the campus - on said campus? And what are the disadvantages - real or perceived?
