Q:

Does the concept of marrying a girl on the basis of her brother always hold true?

A:

And the answer is no, but it certainly is an important factor.

There are other factors too.  Sometimes a girl is so good that it’s worth marrying her on her own merits alone, but if you have two and both are equally good and one has a good brother, then that’s the one you should choose.
