It's not clear to me what I'm missing.  The data has been loaded in
the last two week's worth of sandboxes (it's there now).  I've got
threads in both the Protected Sites (5 threads spanning 3 weeks) and
Architecture domains
(http://www.freebase.com/discuss/threads/guid/9202a8c04000641f800000000ac59113?domain=/architecture)
asking for feedback.  I loaded data for a small state (VT) with an
active power user in the production database and asked for feedback.

I guess if there are more hoops, I can consider jumping through them,
but I did this as a learning exercise and I've accomplished the
learning piece.  The data is just a by-product.  I thought it'd be a
nice gesture to contribute it, but I've got what I need already.

ps By my calculations using the formula you gave before, I got
short-changed about 3K primitives.  2034 + 23117 - (1441 + 16423) =
7287
