Reserved density conjecture for multiple harmonic sums

Let sNl{\vec{s}}\in{\mathbb N}^l. Define density(RJ(s);X)\operatorname{density}(RJ({\vec{s}});X) to be the proportion, among primes pp with s+2<p<X|{\vec{s}}|+2<p<X, for which J(sp)=RJ(s)J({\vec{s}}|p)=RJ({\vec{s}}), and let density(RJ(s);)\operatorname{density}(RJ({\vec{s}});\infty) denote its limiting value.

Reserved density conjecture.

density(RJ(s);)={1/e,if l=1, s2,1/e,if l=s=1 or l2.\operatorname{density}(RJ({\vec{s}});\infty)= \begin{cases} 1/\sqrt{e}, & \text{if } l=1,\ {\vec{s}}\geq 2,\\ 1/e, & \text{if } l={\vec{s}}=1 \text{ or } l\geq 2. \end{cases}

The source attributes this conjecture to Conjecture 7.6 of the author's earlier paper. No proof or resolution is given in the supplied text.
