For PNAS, I've heard, getting sponsored by a NAS member greatly increases chances for publication. So it seems an odd example to cite for "value".

Its more that NAS members can publish some articles basically for free, so co-authoring with them is a good way to get in easier.

That being said, NAS members I know do not want to erode their reputation by publishing junk.
