Hello Andrew ; First verse, thank you for the time taken to wrtite your ^post here. As you already mentioned in your post, "...Does this mean that the part is out of stock at LCSC, but that JLCPCB still has reels..." Yes that's the right explanation of what it shows the library, the part is no longer available at LCSC stock but stills available at JLCPCB stock so if you are willing to use the part for SMT Assembly it is OK as long as the parts is available at [JLCPCB Parts library](https://jlcpcb.com/parts). You can notice this when you search the part at LCSC website : [https://lcsc\.com/product\-detail/Light\-Emitting\-Diodes\-LED\_Hubei\-KENTO\-Elec\-C2297\_C2297\.html](https://lcsc.com/product-detail/Light-Emitting-Diodes-LED_Hubei-KENTO-Elec-C2297_C2297.html) And when you search for it at JLCPCB Part library : [https://jlcpcb.com/parts/componentSearch?searchTxt=c2297](https://jlcpcb.com/parts/componentSearch?searchTxt=c2297) About handling the SMT Assembly service, your way is the right way, I mean while using easyEDA search for the parts from "JLCPCB Assembled" library since it shows what is compatible with the SMT Assembly service provided by JLCPCB. Thank you.
