I may have spotted a pattern now: no post older than Oct 31 2016 gets imported. I can’t see what the newer posts have different than those before Oct 31 ☹

Once I spotted this issue, I have run the importer again but this time reducing the batch size and limiting the query to only the posts with datetime after Oct 31 2016. This completed the import.
