Just a secret about SCEA and deferrals

Tres Elefantes’ comment made me think- if this is true, then Yale can only accept 100 or so students out of the RD (not applied early) pool. Which seems rather ludicrous, considering that a TON of qualified applicants come from the RD pool after getting deferred or even accepted to top tier schools like Stanford, UChic, MIT, etc etc. Would they really only leave themselves 100 students - a super thin margin - for RD? Doesn’t seem plausible to me…
