ALso, just as more added info, it may be a communication error with regard to "Wires". meaning, not necessarily the "dot wire format", but wires as in edges. Alias' export can be solids, surfaces or wires, with several options for each (the hybrid is all of those things and options) and, Alias kind of does all it's surfacing WITH wires. I don't think those would work for export though, because alias will be carrying all sorts of surface continuity information along with the wires, so MoI running sweep on 4 closed edges from alias will not produce the same surface with "edge directions" regarding tangencies.
