What it means
The national register is the authority on whether a company exists; the LEI record reflects what was last reported to the issuing organisation.
Both statuses are quoted in `agreements`, with each register's own wording in `status_detail`.
What to do
Trust the national register on existence. A disagreement usually means the LEI record is stale.
