Similarly, a student might have two college acceptances. Either college would serve her needs adequately, but ultimately, she needs to decide which one is her first choice. Lots of pros and cons might enter into this decision, and relative cost should be part of the calculation.
Why? How come pragmatic considerations don't belong in one decision process, but they do in the other?

Because she only gets to rank; she doesn't really get to really choose. In the college situation, she has much more control of the whole situation.
I have no problem requiring groups to disclose costs, but it still doesn't allow the girl to really shape her recruitment based on that information. If the less expensive groups drop her, she's going to go back to parties at the more expensive chapters.
