Limitations

What it does not do

The register caps any single search at 1,000 matches; a term that is too broad is reported back so you can refine it (fuller name, add a state, or a shorter date range).
Targeted name searches return matches from any date range; the two-week default keeps broad terms fast. Widen dateFrom for a historical check.
Query-driven, not a bulk copy of the register - by design this is for targeted checks.
