Hey, It's me you're talking about. I haven't fully clarified the situation, but the short explanation is yes I applied to OHSU NGP, was invited for an interview with Behav Neuro, and waitlisted by NGP.
The long explanation is... longer. I spent a hugely long time on the phone with directors of both NGP and Behav Neuro, talking about which program is more applicable to my interests, because I didn't want to pay both application fees. On multiple days at SfN, I spent a long time at OHSU's booths, talking to current students and faculty about which program to apply to, and subsequently getting my name in their door. I invited members of both admissions committees to come to my poster, to see what my research interests were, and further discuss what program I should be applying to. So even though I ended up only applying to the NGP, I had huge amounts of contact with Behav Neuro, who probably were interested in my application and offered to review it when the NGP made their decision.
The reason I share this is because it shows that the personal aspect of the application process... through my personal interactions with these people, I was able to secure an interview. I would really advise against "making a stink" about it, since this alone has shown how much your personal interactions can influence the decisions.

Preference is usually given to the strongest applicants whose interests best align with that program. Its well known/common place that programs can refer exceptional applicants to other departments of similar interests. Especially programs that are so close like Behavioral Neuroscience and Graduate Neuroscience...
It might be useful to ask the programs if it is necessary to apply to both-and if they refer applicants to the other one. Might’ve saved you time, money, and disappointment.

The fact remains. Preference should have been given to those who applied for that specific program.
