Involutivity and ordinariness of the elementary integral manifold

Let (M,I)(M,\mathcal{I}) be an analytic involutive exterior differential system, considered over C\mathbb{C}. Write elem(I)\operatorname{elem}(\mathcal{I}) for its elementary system, and let DD be the integral manifold associated to an ordinary integral manifold by the foliation theorem. Elementary involutivity conjecture. The system elem(I)\operatorname{elem}(\mathcal{I}) is involutive on M(1)M^{(1)}, and the integral manifold DD is ordinary. This is presented as the strongest possible version of the preceding corollary, which establishes only that some prolongation of the elementary system is involutive; the conjecture concerns involutivity before prolongation and ordinariness of the resulting integral manifold.
