I don't know how many different .ADI files you can download, but the one you
want from LoTW it contains only records that are confirmed by both parties. 
These should not cause problems in your logbook.

Also, when importing the .ADI file from LoTW, use it ONLY to set the "Upl Conf"
field in the logbook (this is one of the ADIF import options).
