What a great photo of Sister Alice Ross-King! Thankyou for posting it, JoeW. The badge shows up quite well.
I guess that answers my question. A brooch back makes a lot of sense as it would be much easier to use in that situation than the regular lugs. I notice though, that the badge is not actually serving as a clasp for the cape, it is actually being worn at the throat of her uniform.
I guess I can consider the brooch backs in a different light, as badges, now.
