If RK is signaling LFNU at a non-SM level, we may also expect LFV at a non-SM level. In fact:

Consider a new, LFNU interaction above the EWSB scale, e.g. with

Take the SM with zero ν masses.

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.
