I don't understand how one minute you're bashing "traditional" Greek life and everything it stands for and the next you're basically sucking its dick.

You mistake my criticism of your criticism as performing fellatio on Greek tradition. Of all the things to perform fellatio on, Greek Tradition is not at the top of my list.
So I'll clarify for you, this is my personal opinion on banning seniors:
I think it's unfair, I'd love to make changes to my GLO that would make is more focused on life long service and social activities, and less concerned with numbers, keeping up appearances and so on. Meaning a college senior might miss out on some undergrad years but could and would be expected to progress into alumnae chapters that are equally active and not only full of people her mother's age or older.
This is my opinion on what you're saying:
But that doesn't change that it's not in any way dangerous or risking a lawsuit or risking revealing their MS process to prohibit bidding a senior explicitly or implicitly. It's not even necessarily 'dumb' in a logistical sense, as a chapter that is simultaneously restricted by NPC Quota/Total AND housing requirements must maximize the number of years that a member is in their chapter or they make it harder on themselves every single year.
Here's a general summary:
Yeah it sucks, but it's the reality. If I could tear it down and build it back up differently I would, but I can't. Just like I'd tear down the ridiculous socially stratified Tier system at SEC campuses if I could. But regardless of my opinion I'd be wrong to tell a chapter there that they should individually buck the system and do it 'right' aka 'my way' when that would only hurt them.
