(b) forced to internally make their own stances on the issue, creating inconsistencies and effing up the order of tiers and statuses. Who wants the be the house that openly takes the quitters?

Unfortunately, it sometimes depends on the social standing/perception of the organization the girls left. If XYZ is looked at as a "joke" for whatever reason, people aren't going to be harsh on ABC for taking in Jenny the ex-XYZ, especially if "Jenny was just a naïve freshman who didn't know what she was doing." Or especially if Jenny is more attractive/popular/campus involved than the average member of XYZ.

You'd like to think women who are legally young adults have already grasped the concept of "there but for the grace of God go I," but often times, not. That also applies to bidding someone from another council. You shouldn't have to make a rule, but unfortunately, it appears you do.

I'm not touching on the male side just because the purpose of NIC and NPC is so vastly different.

I totally agree.

And now I see a thread scolding a young lady for quitting recruitment twice. And I laugh. Oh well...we have already established the bias...I'll let it go.

She didn't drop the "by the way I'm in a multicultural sorority" pearl until halfway through the thread. She didn't quit, she just has really lame reasons about why she couldn't go through rush at all.
