A top chapter at a campus unreceptive to juniors will be over total most of the time. When they take quota in formal, they get to exceed total, but they don't get to take more than quota because people graduated. (For example, even though UGA total is around 175, many chapters have memberships of above 200. They are never going to get to COB, even if they want to. It's a question of how big they are basically limiting them to formal as their only way to gain members.)

And they will be limited to quota in the next formal rush with no extra snaps.

I agree with you that it shouldn't be such a big deal with huge quotas (and hey, if total is 175, would the group actually be wrecked to dip to 199?), but when they're so many great freshman PNMS, I think it's hard to pass up an outstanding frosh for a member who you know will only be around two years.
