Describe the bug

Small note for error handling behavior. No need for immediate resolution.

When uploading expansion rules and sets via the API, Aerie will allow the user to create an expansion rule in a model where an activity type doesn't exist. The new rule appears in the Aerie UI under the "Rules" page (with the specified parcel and mission model IDs), and the UI doesn't present any errors unless you go into "Edit" mode for the rule, at which point the editor gives an error for the missing ActivityType definition.

When trying to create a set via the API, we get a "No activity with name: in mission model with id:" error. When trying to create via the Aerie UI, it's confusing because the rule appears under "Rules" but it isn't available to select when creating the set.

Reproduction

• Create an expansion rule via the API with an activity type that doesn't exist in the selected mission model (aerie-cli method for reference of how we triggered the behavior).
• Attempt to create an expansion set, either via the API or UI, using that rule.
