Jonzarno, I am indeed aware of this

not use the term "beneficial owner", only the phrase "is owned by", and the registered owner is very clearly a legal entity in its own right.
But I do take your and airpolice's point - perhaps there is/was no lying, rather just yet another terminological inexactitude.
