Conceptually they are populated using different mechanisms, but pragmatically they should contain same information. The _live_config IfTree is populated/updated asynchronously by the IfConfig Observer that tracks the kernel upcalls. The _pulled_config is populated on demand (explicitly) by the pull_config() method. In other words, _live_config is a moving target, while _pulled_config is a snapshot.
