The reason why I want to add the naptan=missing is so that it derificates them from stops that were added before naptan, and highlights the fact that they could not be found in the naptan data. So far I think there has been more stops on the ground without a naptan data item, than in the naptan data along the route I took. I'm quite impressed with the fact the vast majority of them have timetable information on them, though they do lack fare information (thought that's probably so that they can charge 3 times as much to go a 1/3 of the distance).
