The orbit-equivalent primitive closed permutation groups conjecture

Let GG and HH be distinct orbit-equivalent primitive closed permutation groups on a countably infinite set XX. The groups are orbit-equivalent when they have the same orbits on finite subsets of XX. They should both belong to the list

Aut(X,<),Aut(X,B),Aut(X,C),Aut(X,S),Sym(X).\operatorname{Aut}(X,<),\quad \operatorname{Aut}(X,B),\quad \operatorname{Aut}(X,C),\quad \operatorname{Aut}(X,S),\quad \operatorname{Sym}(X).

Orbit-equivalent groups conjecture. GG and HH belong to the list above. This would strengthen the main theorem by removing its assumption that the groups are not 2-transitive. The result is open in the source.
