That is just not the case. If you end up without a bid, it is because you were too low on BOTH chapters' bid lists. I know that is a a harder thing for PNM's to face, but as we discussed above, if you are on a chapter's first bid list, you stay there until you are matched there or elsewhere.
Isn't that what "cross-cut" refers to? The PNM is cut (released) from all of her preference chapters because she never moved onto any of the chapters' first bid list. Thus she was *cut across the board* - i.e. cross-cut.
