it is a little bit frustrating

because I cannot find in the documentation for record linkage any explicit way to solve this

though seemingly it would be a very commonplace problem

i.e. missing values (empty string, NaN, etc) being marked as if they are positive matches when in reality they should be given a score of zero.

Hello,
I have the same issue : NaN comparison generates scores equal to one.
Thanks for this toolkit!

Isn't this done with the missing_value argument? E.g.

compare_cl.numeric("a_name", "b_name", label="name", missing_value=1)
