While I'm not interested in passing judgment on the particulars mentioned here, I see what you mean.
I'd like to see the NPC try to show more deference to non-NPC groups, particularly if the non-NPC group is holding itself out as national.
I don't particularly find KKG or KD at fault in the situations we're discussing, but it wouldn't seem to be a good trend.
*although I don't think there's anyway that an NPC could pick up a chapter of a NPHC. Even if the women were interested, which seems unlikely, it would be a PR disaster. We're, for the most part, willing to accept that the NPC's were able to offer locals or KBG chapters something that wasn't available to them without NPC affiliation. Nobody with any sense is going to be prepared to make the case, especially publicly, that NPC membership offers something that NPHC membership doesn't. How would that go: "Um, yeah, but we're predominantly white or we're bigger and that's always better."
