I imagine it's more of a semantics thing -- does 4/5 points mean 4/5 points total or 4/5 points visible. To ASA, it means 4 points total, with one being hidden. But to ZTA, I assume it means 5 points visible. Per the ZTA website:
Crown – The five-pointed Crown is an official symbol of the Fraternity. The significance of the five points is revealed to each member upon her Initiation. Many examples of crown artwork can be found within ZTA, and all are acceptable as long as the crown contains exactly five points.

Ah. I guess since I was on GC, I went for the Greek reference first, but you're exactly right.

Well, then, lets just say there are layers of inappropriateness going on here.
