Is your feature request related to a problem?
The current socket group guess function is obviously mainly meant for PoE1 since it uses the group size, but for PoE2 this isn't really correct since every group can be a 6 link. It would probably be a good idea to choose the main socket group by e.g. DPS, while also going through different skill sets. Especially some builds like the doedre's frog build have a useless curse as the first stat set which seems to confuse people.

Research direction
Start at src/Classes/ImportTab.lua lines 1638-1648 and trace the current main socket group guess, then inspect how skill sets and DPS are represented. Done means selecting a useful PoE2 main socket group across different skill sets, including cases such as the Doedre's frog build, rather than relying on group size alone.
