Missing passwords from import

First of all, LOVE the project, thank you so much!
I wanted to properly evaluate if Vaultwarden would be a valid replacement to Psono for my family and me since Psono is not a good solution for us (Webauthn not working on phones to name one issue).
To properly evaluate, I wanted to import my passwords form Psono and was very happy to see that there's an option for that! However, once imported, I noticed that out of my over 400 passwords, only about 10% were imported. See my further analysis below.

Steps to reproduce

Export passwords from Psono in unencrypted JSON-format
Import passwords into Vaultwarden, tried both file and pasted json

Expected behaviour

All passwords should be imported into their corresponding top-level folders. I would expect passwords in nested folders to be imported into the top-level folder. So a password sitting in /folder1/subfolder1/ would be imported into folder1.

Actual behaviour

Only passwords in the root-folder or only one folder in are imported. All passwords residing in sub-folders are ignored. Additionally for passwords in folders, only the first one is put into the correct folder, the rest is imported without folder.

Troubleshooting data

Psono with Family-passwords showing (obfuscated of course), folder is 16 passwords:

Import Result:
