BUG whoami returning "admin_for" and "ta_for" which do not match for superusers

See original GitHub issue

From /api/public/auth/whoami for me (I am a superuser):

{
  "data": {
    "context": {
      "id": "...",
      "name": "Intro to OS"
    },
    "status": null,
    "user": {
      "admin_for": [
        {
          "id": "...",
          "name": "OOP"
        },
        {
          "id": "...",
          "name": "Intro to OS"
        }
      ],
      "github_username": "wabscale",
      "id": "...",
      "is_admin": true,
      "is_superuser": true,
      "name": "John Cunniff",
      "netid": "jmc1283",
      "professor_for": [],
      "ta_for": [
        {
          "id": "...",
          "name": "Intro to OS"
        }
      ]
    },
    "variant": "warning"
  },
  "error": null,
  "success": true
}

I see. Looks like a pretty straight forward task. I’ll take this one and work on it this weekend.

Never mind. Apparently sqlalchemy doesn’t have a workaround on cyclic association. I misremembered that with Django.
