inserting/updating/deleting Salesforce recurring tasks

Salesforce recurring tasks have some limitations when we want to do the cleaning.

Let's say I have John in Salesforce and John_duplicated who has recurring tasks. I want to delete John_duplicated and move his 10 recurring tasks to John.

In theory, if I update whoId and/or whatId of the records in Task object to whoId=contact of John (if its value is John_duplicate's contact) and whatId to John's account it should work using tSalesforce_output with update mode.

But SF throws this error Apex Task Trigger cannot handle batch operations on recurring task error.

If I want to use tSalesforce_output with the delete/insert method how I can insert new recurring tasks as one of them should be the parent of other inserted records?

Appreciate any help. thanks.
