I like to point out that this import proposal is part of a series of 
imports that has proven to be problematic in results as previously 
pointed out (non-successfully) to the importer:

has been proven to be incorrect as evidenced by the speed of the 
imports:

and the resulting damage to the database, littering it with 
geometrically incompatible features, like for example visible here:
