Reorder points on Surface

I'm trying to create a series of uv curves on a surface. The curves are divided into points that have been put into groups based on the angle between surface normal and Z direction. Whats not working is when I bring the woven points into the Match Path component, it will not reorder the points based on the original uv contours. Attached are the Rhino and GH files.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Igor, I tried that and it still didn't work. Have you encountered this issue before? It seems to occur when I get the normal values from a surface instead of values from the original curves.

Thank you for that. I would like the final list of points to be organized according to the tree structure of the surface divisions, so that I can manipulate the clusters in regions and then in the end draw contour curves (in the same fashion) from the new points. Is that what the path mapper is doing in your definition? I've never used it before.
