In this case, reducing tolerance will make it acceptable but since that is dependent on case by case it's difficult to determine before hand on a larger dataset.

As Bjorn mentioned. Seems to be something with the tolerance at play here. So perhaps the application of the tolerance is causing an invalid geometry.

I can load these fine if I specify no tolerance as follows:

Tolerances are known to possibly introduce these problems, yes. The missing functionality is handling of edge merges (an incoming point on an existing edge "attracting" a near-by edge so that it would share a portion with the other one).

I didn't check to see if this is the problem of this specific case, but it's a general robustness problem with PostGIS Topology.

I can still reproduce as of
