[ensembl-dev] Missmatch from database and website

I have an update that may shed a light but I cannot figure out.
With the command in my previous email, I see that the stableID is
ENSG00000259634. As I enter this ID in the web site, I see

Gene: RP11-529H20.5 ENSG00000259634  . Location  Chromosome 14:
92,524,896-92,525,877 reverse strand.

As you can see the start and end numbers matches with my previous email and
its name is not ATXN3 which I requested in the command. So, the question is
that why fetch_all_by_external_name("atxn3") returns that.

In my previous questions, Emily pointed that function may returns LRGs. For
me it is hard to understand since I am not an expert in that field. I want
to the get the main gene and not anything else.

Regards,
Mahmood
