I think that's right. Our ECO church, which split from PCUSA, is a very large one, with 6 locations. The services are always full. The reason for departure, though, was the building/land ownership, not the same-sex issues. I don't think there was much (or any?) discussions of same-sex issues during the split process.

On the off-chance you're talking about Menlo Church, my impression is that it was both. The real estate issues were less divisive, and therefore easier to focus on. Many churches struggle with the SSM issue because they don't want to alienate members on either side.
