In theory, it's supposed to be different than bigs/littles/families, but most of the time, it still ends up being similar.
This sounds like a great idea because it ups the chances that the new member will have close connections in the group from the beginning. It also sounds great because it keeps seniors involved and values their role in a different way that just expecting them to take another little sister.
