The agent is reporting on the information that it knows about - that
currently exists.
If it received a GETNEXT request that affects a table, it should
return the next index for the contents of the table at that particular
point in time.  Yes - other rows might be created in the future, and
that would mean different results for the same request.
   But the agent can't predict the future - all it can do is report on
what it knows about at the time.   So whether rows can be
created./deleted or not is irrelevant - take the current contents of
the table, and report one the next existing row.
