Faithfulness of regular Stanley sequences to their cores

Let S(A)={an}S(A)=\{a_n\} and S(A)={an}S(A')=\{a'_n\} be Stanley sequences. Say that S(A)S(A) is faithful to S(A)S(A') if, for every an<ω(A)a'_n<\omega(A'), there is an index mm such that am=ana_m=a'_n. For a regular sequence, its core is denoted S(A)S'(A). Faithfulness conjecture. Every regular Stanley sequence is faithful to its core. This proposed property would describe how the initial portion of a regular sequence retains the elements of its core; the source gives no proof or resolution.
