Isolation conjecture for parabolic periodic points in positive characteristic

Let ff be an analytic map over an ultrametric field of positive characteristic, and let ζ0\zeta_0 be a parabolic periodic point, meaning that for its minimal period nn, the multiplier (fn)(ζ0)(f^n)'(\zeta_0) is a root of unity. Isolation conjecture. Every parabolic periodic point is either isolated as a periodic point, or has a neighborhood on which an iterate of ff is the identity. In positive characteristic, this conjecture addresses the remaining case after the corresponding isolation result in characteristic zero; the cited prior work proposed it, while the supplied status gives no evidence of resolution.
