In some cases those sororities had chapters that became inactive before a group merged with / was absorbed by another NPC org.

Yep! One example would be UCLA. When it became part of the UC system around 1920, sororities flooded the place. In 1930 there were
35 sororities on campus....all housed! These were NPC, now former NPC and locals. It slowly dwindled down to the current 11 over the course of 70 years.
University of Maryland, on the other hand, only had a few locals that quickly became chapters of NPCs starting in the mid-1920s. The number of chapters grew over the next 30-40 years peaking at 18. Now there are 14.
The point is that you can't make one definative statement about how expansion could work or does work for campuses so drastically different from eachother.
