You're not clueless. Doing it this way punishes the girls who SIP. This way means the girls who SIP have a way slighter chance of getting a bid, since they can't be used as a QA. And while I'm not a fan of SIP, that still seems unnecessarily harsh, compared to making quota 70 or 75.
This low a quota relative to pledge class size would only seem to make sense at a campus with many more chapters where it will allow more chapters to achieve quota, or restrict the strongest chapters from continuing to grow relative to the other chapters. As has been discussed before, the strongest chapters have the fewest girls at pref, and therefore the fewest opportunities for QA. But based on the numbers, neither argument seems to make sense here.
