Gotta love those who have to pick up on that. For all I know (and what I presume) is that you do things that some consider hazing because someone might consider it demeaning. I'm thinking thinks like pledges answering the door at the house, or answering the phones, or actually having to hold a conversation with every sister prior to her initiation.
I come from a very small chapter, though of a national, that guarded our independence fiercely, and tolerated visits from headquarters (mind you, this was long ago and far away). I may understand what you mean. I like the idea of freedom to do what one feels is necessary for the health of the chapter and the sisterhood without NPC or even a national determining how you'd do something. There's something to be said for independence.
But there's something, also, to be said for having a network of thousands of sisters across the country, and an instant network and bond wherever you may go. Running into a sister while on a family to trip to Europe, for example, or in the mall where you had to stop on a cross-country trip 'cause you ruined your jeans.
Each has its pros and cons. The important thing is that your sorority gives you the bond and home that's right for you.
