the main thing is “who is accountable?”, and the answer to this is the same for all sub-orgs.
Accountable to whom, though? The board is ultimately legally accountable (for things like whether or not the entity is fulfilling its charitable purposes), but this is a pretty weak kind of accountability in most cases.
I’d guess that suborg leadership is probably more accountable to funders, for example.
(My actual position here is intermediate between yours & Jeff’s.)
