I think the two sys prefs are doing slightly different things.
OPACShowHoldsCount shows the total # of holds to everyone, logged in or not.
OPACDisplayRequestPriority shows the priority of your hold request, when you're
logged in.
I think the difference is when a patron does a search in the OPAC, even not
logged in he can see how many holds are already on a particular item. If there
are already 50 holds, he may decide he doesn't want to go to the effort of
logging in and placing a hold. If all the patron can see is his priority, then
he wouldn't know there are 50 holds until after he has already logged in and
placed his hold, which he would then need to cancel if he doesn't want to wait
in line behind 50 other people.
