Edoukou's point-count conjecture for projective algebraic sets

From papers

Let XPn(Fq)X\subset\mathbb{P}^{n}(\mathbb{F}_q) be a projective algebraic set of degree dd and dimension ss. Writing πj=Pj(Fq)\pi_j=|\mathbb{P}^j(\mathbb{F}_q)|, Edoukou's point-count conjecture.

X(Fq)dqs+πs1.|X(\mathbb{F}_q)|\le dq^s+\pi_{s-1}.

The source remarks that this is true in codimension one, where it is the Tsfasman–Serre–Sørensen upper bound for hypersurfaces, and that the bound for intersections of two quadrics with no common hyperplane is a special case. The general assertion is presented as a conjecture.
