It seems somewhat common sense, but parents have egos and want to see their kids on the best team regardless. I get they'll play with better girls at practice, but getting game experience is very important.

Once they get to HS and almost everything is a showcase everyone at M&D is required to play at least half the game so it's not really a concern at that point. The concern is how will she look playing against the quality of teams M&D plays. Again, the key is to be honest about how good your daughter actually is, and not how good you think or wish she was. Playing for the best team where she can compete and excel should be a priority.
That is not the case at all. Not sure who gave you that information, but M&D in no way gives equal playing time in HS. This i know.
