No, it's more like "we know you wanted someone else and didn't match with them, but we still want you to be OUR sister because we think you'd be happy in the long run." I think boiling it down to a numbers only thing is a little cynical.

Plus, sometimes the people you offer snap bids to WERE on your first bid list, they just didn't put you down, so it's not a case of "wanting other people more."
