There has been a chapter which has not been so consistent on that regard and had to sometimes participate in COB over the last few years.

The sororities still have to vote for extension and if there's a fakishly (is that a word?) low quota, it's not going to sway their vote - they're going to know what's up. Especially the chapter that hasn't been making quota.

True, but it can also help the group not making quota, because quota is even smaller with another chapter present. If a group is stagnant while the big keep getting bigger, it can be worse than if a group is stagnant while the big have levelled off.
