ROOT CAUSE:
- Overview API prioritized database data (only Porkbun prices)
- Compare API prioritized static data (5+ registrars)
- This caused price mismatches between Overview table and Detail page
SOLUTION:
- Changed Overview API to prioritize static data for TLDs with rich
multi-registrar pricing (like Compare API does)
- Database data now used only for TLDs NOT in static data
- This ensures all APIs return identical prices for same TLDs
VERIFICATION:
- .com: Overview=$10.75, Compare=$10.75 ✓
- .io: Overview=$32.33, Compare=$32.33 ✓
- .ai: Overview=$71.63, Compare=$71.63 ✓
- .xyz: Overview=$6.86, Compare=$6.86 ✓
DATA FLOW (now consistent):
1. Static TLDs (18): Use rich multi-registrar data
2. DB-only TLDs (869): Use Porkbun scraped data
