Description
Might be expected, but I'm curious why the ASpace staff interface returns 1488 agents updated on 3/15, but the source file had 1490 agents total. Any duplicates, agents that did not get updated intentionally, or an indexing issue in ASpace, etc.?

Research direction
Start by comparing the 1,490 agents in the source file with the 1,488 agents reported as updated by the ArchivesSpace staff interface during the 3/15 script run. Trace the run's handling of duplicates, intentionally skipped agents, and indexing, then document which two records explain the gap.
