As you can see, it takes a very specific set of circumstances.

You are exactly right on all accounts. There are still many campuses that (a) do not utilize the new RFM and/or (b) stick very close to the 5% rule in the Green Book. Last fall, NPC passed a
resolution allowing RFM Specialists to go over the 5% rule if necessary to place more women - still taking into account pre-recruitment chapter size and PNM preference.
This will prevent a lot of these situations from happening. I've seen it firsthand many many times on my campuses - especially before RFM. There were always a handful of fantastic women who had a full Pref schedule but went bidless. Most of the time they were attending Preference at "desirable" chapters which led to the problem - as strong recruiting chapters close their bid lists very early, leaving many names to go. This is the point behind RFM - to keep the strong recruiting chapters from having way too many women on their bid list.
