That’s pretty much all there is to it, yeah, just a missing data problem. But once you slap the “shadow profile” label on it, it gets “shady” and “scary”. A pretty cool lesson in how to make something fairly trivial and non-threatening seem scary to people.

Note: not currently or in the past employed by Meta or any affiliated companies, so that’s just purely my own take.
