The point of the graph traversal is that they are NOT a solution (but rather proof that there is no solution down that road). That's why we have the other two things I mentioned.

I did check my ML from 2005 to now before writing this.
did try the current webtools import feature as well.
will read up on thegraph traversal algorithms

I have been fumbling with this for a while.
I made a reader reload to reload exported data as a transfer ability.

so my question, from the architects.
is there a sequence of all the entities that will allow them to load?

There have been approximately 2000 mailing list messages on this topic.

A single ordered list of entities by foreign key dependencies is
impossible, there are loops in them. If you want to research theory on
this check out graph traversal algorithms and the like.

Use one of the various tools to get around FKs, like dummy fks or the
check/update database page that has tools to turn them on/off.
