Your points are interestng, but I think there may be a lot to what Greg Dunlap is recommending in terms of thinking in Drupal logic terms and not database terms.
One of the take-aways from the Data API Design Sprint back in February was that we need to move away from assuming that everything is in a single local SQL database. That is simply far too limiting.
Any import/export/deploy mechanism will absolutely need to operate at the entity level, not the database level, because there's no guarantee that there will always be a local SQL database in which these things are stored.
