Yeah, as far as USCS is concerned, they probably received your transmitted alien arrival information, knew you took the flight, but never saw you enter the country. Maybe you transitted on another flight or returned... Or entered with a different passport.

I'm sure it happens enough they discard it. All they would have otherwise is a name match.
