No, I like RFM very much. Sororities who invite back women they have no intention of pledging just to say WE GOT MORE FULL PARTIES THAN ANYONE ELSE are poopyheads.

As to "mutual selection," while it is true to a point, in the same way as suicide vs. intentional single preference and rush vs. recruitment, it pretties up what is happening a little too much. Justgowithit summed it up perfectly:

That Seventeen article on rush from eons ago put it in a better way - i.e. letting you know that you are checking the groups out, but somehow making it clear that you were not in charge, but not making it mean. That's the kind of thing that you can't do in a "mutual selection" sound bite.
