You look at the diagrams and delete from the "outside edges" in.
So, something like allmiscs, actor_actees, neighbors, point_data,
samples.

I _could_ have had the system automatically delete _everything_
associated with, for example, a sample if you just delete the
SAMPLES row, but that was extra work and sounded kinda dangerous.
Anyway, mostly we don't delete data.
