It was not to enhance diversity and inclusion, it's because there are so many legacies coming through now that it just doesn't work any more, especially with RFM. Used to be that houses could ask back anybody they wanted before pref round, even if they really weren't going to bid them, and the pnm's (or rushees as they were called) did the cutting. So houses would look better having as many girls back as possible to parties and could include legacies in those early rounds without having to cut anyone else. A lot of girls were carried along from round to round only to be dumped right before pref just for the numbers, while all along those girls had been cutting other houses and were often left with nothing at all. Then RFM happened, with houses being given a number to invite back that they absolutely can't exceed, and with the legacy policy still in place they had to cut so many amazing girls first round to just to adhere to their limit and keep the damn legacies that they may or may not want. With legacy girls multiplying in numbers over generations, it has got to the state that having to keep them all first round is a detriment to any chapter and prohibits true self-selected membership. Inclusion and diversity may be a side effect, but it's not the real true reason.
