I think that 33girl is just pointing out that there can be no argument about whether NMs are abused or not if the cleaning groups are integrated.
It is good practice to integrate on a couple levels:
First... isn't this a good way for the NMs to get to know the brothers better and vice versa?
Second...if you get into the habit of separating it and somewhere down the line (a year or two from now) someone skews it just a little and instead of the usual house cleaning, the NMs are scrubbing the kitchen floor with their own toothbrushes and being asked to do other "degrading" methods of cleaning, then it is clearly hazing, by NIC standards also. If everybody has house chores together, in integrated groups, you avoid the possibility altogether. That is truly risk management, because you are working to eliminate the possibility of something going wrong.
