While this is your understanding and you have the information to support that claim, others, looking from the outside in, may not view it the same.
Just as you are doing with service organizations.
I think that D9 Greeks get stuff twisted up at times thinking that everyone joins, or wants to join another organization because they want more of what D9 Greeks do/have.
Sometimes organizations have a history, within a career or profession, that many D9 Greeks refuse to investigate because they feel that they have hit the pinnacle of Greekdom.
The only real problem that I have with organizations outside of the NPHC, that are NOT historically recognized as having a sense of "Social Greek Life", is when they begin to "adopt" traditions indicative of D9 organizations on a chapter by chapter basis, rather than something that is recognized and acknowledged by a majority of the body or their headquarters.
