I think all the quibbling over numbers is tasteless. To be blunt, and it makes me feel sick to think about it because it's awful, if the fire is hot enough there won't be any remains but ashes. Not even teeth or bone. It's going to take months to find out exactly how many bodies there are.

There is no way for anyone to know how many people were in the flats that night apart from the numbers of those reported missing and there might have been people in there that haven't even been reported missing yet for many different reasons. Such as no one knowing they were there, or people whose family live in another country etc.

To blame anyone (gov, fire brigade, police, council) for not knowing all the numbers and facts within a couple of weeks of the fire is ridiculous. How can they possibly know until an investigation is completed?
