>>It may have briefly been a td, but, isn't now.

It doesn't matter one way or the other, but the effects were there. Extratropical low, non-tropical low, subtropical low, low with some tropical characteristics and partially of tropical origin, they still got an early taste of the season. Forget the MLC, the classification of the LLC could have gone either way. The weather was there. The observations were there. It doesn't amount to anything because even if it was a TD or STD, it doesn't count for named storms anyway. It's just an appetizer.

>>but I think the NW Carribean/SE Gulf will be back in the NHC TWO within 48 hours

Hard to say. There's some weather down there. There's some ridging overtop. But the weather pattern is still too complicated. I wouldn't expect anything to happen before Tuesday if at all. It's just something of a mild curiosity at this point.
