Assuming arguendo:
If we are going to apply the "wait a calendar year til the next formal recruitment" (or whatever) idea to every single bid issued, then we are saying that formal recruitment is identical to COB/informal recruitment. That's the first problem. They are two vastly different experiences. "Stigma" of COB is the fundamental issue, and thinking that increasing the wait time to equate to FR if a COB new member drops isn't an improvement. From there, the logic goes completely awry.
There are more issues with a "smaller" chapter than restricting a pnm's ability to re-rush in a certain time period will help or solve in terms of achieving parity in membership size. That's been pointed out by others in this discussion.
Think about it. Just think it all the way through. I know what I'm trying to say but I wonder if it's going to come across at all the way I intend it. I'm NOT talking down to anyone. I'm just looking at the logic.
