To me, if this is indeed the case, this is just the PROs being foolish
or actively trying to combat Artists' Freedom.
Since BY and BY-SA are non-exclusive licenses, you could offer one of
those Free CC licenses on a recording and at the same time offer a very
restrictive license on the same recording. The (for instance) radio
station that has a blanket license from a PRO could pay under the
restrictive license and be done with it or they could claim a BY or
BY-SA use and prove it. This would likely be a lot of trouble for the
station for no money saved. They would likely use the restrictive
license of yours under the blanket license from the PRO.

Until I see better reasoning from a PRO as to why this sort of stance
is necessary, I will go with the foolish or actively against Freedom.
Always open to learn though.
