Research direction

Start by locating the existing entry point for creating network objects from adjacency lists, then compare its expected input with the NODELIST format shown in the issue. Support a NODELIST containing ego, alter1, and alter2 entries, and verify that empirical survey data in that form produces the intended network object.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description
