the key is the code a user writes, as a database keys a table. `country[NO]` loads, and

`country[Norway]` is refused naming `[NO]`, found by the row whose cell spells the

its own: the import reads the previous TSV and keeps each postort's id by kommun and

A link is proved against the parent's keys and a key's uniqueness is a data mistake, so

both are load-time; the name index and the per-parent child lists serve only a draw or a

selection, so they wait for the first one, keeping `New` linear in the bytes read.
