Research direction

Start at src/Classes/ImportTab.lua lines 1638-1648 and trace the current main socket group guess, then inspect how skill sets and DPS are represented. Done means selecting a useful PoE2 main socket group across different skill sets, including cases such as the Doedre's frog build, rather than relying on group size alone.

The current socket group guess function is obviously mainly meant for PoE1 since it uses the group size, but for PoE2 this isn't really correct since every group can be a 6 link. It would probably be a good idea to choose the main socket group by e.g. DPS, while also going through different skill sets. Especially some builds like the doedre's frog build have a useless curse as the first stat set which seems to confuse people.
