Other people will be able to chime in on the specifics of your problem, but we recognize that its a frustrating situation.

There is some discussion tabular formats for ML models [here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/taking-fitting-seriously/13281/37) and there are a number of works in progress to make the construction of ML models from a variety of table types seamless.
