Harbourne–Huneke refined Chudnovsky question

Let Ik[Pn]I\subseteq\Bbbk[\mathbb P^n] be the radical ideal of a finite set of points, and let α(J)\alpha(J) denote the least degree of a nonzero homogeneous element of JJ. Fix a positive integer mm.

Refined Chudnovsky question. For every r>0r>0,

α(I(m))+n1m+n1α(I(r))r.\frac{\alpha(I^{(m)})+n-1}{m+n-1}\leq\frac{\alpha(I^{(r)})}{r}.

This asks for a uniform lower bound on all symbolic-power slopes based on one fixed symbolic power; the source presents it as a question and gives no resolution status.
