Take the SM with zero ν masses.
Charged-lepton Yukawa couplings are LFNU, but they are diagonal in the mass eigenbasis (hence no LFV)

Take the SM with zero ν masses.
Charged-lepton Yukawa couplings are LFNU, but they are diagonal in the mass eigenbasis (hence no LFV) Or more generally, take the SM plus a minimal mechanism for ν masses.
Physical LFV will appear in W couplings, but it's suppressed by powers of ( mν / mW )2

Take the SM with zero ν masses.
Charged-lepton Yukawa couplings are LFNU, but they are diagonal in the mass eigenbasis (hence no LFV) Bottom line: in the SM+ν there is LFNU, but LFV is nowhere to be seen (in decays) Or more generally, take the SM plus a minimal mechanism for ν masses.
Physical LFV will appear in W couplings, but it's suppressed by powers of ( mν / mW )2

But this coin has a flip side. Through RGE running, one gets also LFU-breaking effects in τ → ℓ v v (tested at per mil accuracy) Such effects “strongly disfavour an explanation of the R(D(*)) anomaly model-independently”

Conclusions
In flavor physics there are by now several persistent discrepancies with respect to the SM. Data vs. theory: Discrepancies go in a consistent direction. A BSM explanation is already possible within an EFT approach. Experiments: Results are consistent between LHCb and B factories.
