A formula for a repeated-entry generalized monotone-triangle enumeration

Let An1:=α(n1;1,2,,n1)A_{n-1}:=\alpha(n-1;1,2,\ldots,n-1) and let n4n\geq4. Repeated-entry formula conjecture. The identity

α(n+1;1,3,4,3,4,5,,n)=n+42An1\alpha(n+1;1,3,4,3,4,5,\ldots,n)=\frac{n+4}{2}A_{n-1}

should hold. The formula was obtained from computational experiments and is presented as part of a family of conjectured evaluations; no proof is given in the source.
