Compatibly split subvariety characterization for the Grassmannian

Let Gr(k,n)\mathrm{Gr}(k,n) carry its standard Frobenius splitting. An irreducible subvariety is compatibly split if it is compatibly preserved by this splitting.

Compatibly split positroid conjecture. The only compatibly split irreducible subvarieties of Gr(k,n)\mathrm{Gr}(k,n) are the closed positroid varieties.

The source states this as a conjecture-like assertion after noting a finiteness theorem for compatibly split subvarieties. The parser supplies no resolution status, and the source passage itself does not establish the characterization.
