Sounds interesting. What exactly do you mean ? Ah, wait, you
mean the constraints that are handed to the exporter, right ?

Ah, there's the culprit !

You are correct !

Which is (likely) a (conceptual) bug in the EMR tree browser
(or rather the exporter) that needs to be fixed.

I know. However, putting in those guards just masks the real
bug, namely the faulty concept in the exporter.

Why of course.

I think you are right.

Never mind. Please do be careful though.
