Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
They were registered. We contacted the council, and they even found the processed paper application. They have no idea why their my.scouting registration has been deleted.
Their Scoutbook records have approved merit badges and requirements, which cannot have happened if they were not registered.
They both have valid BSA ids.
They both were only added to Scoutbook through the nightly synch. The notes on their memberships say “AkelaSBDeltaSyncInsert”.
I presume something went wrong with these recent changes, and their my.scouting records were deleted by the nightly synch.
The only thing I am aware of that is distinctive about their situation is that their parent’s account has no e-mail address associated with it somehow.
