Finiteness conjecture for bounded-genus L-space surgeries in twist families

Let {(Kn,rn)}\{(K_n,r_n)\} be a twist family of surgeries, where rnr_n is the corresponding surgery slope on KnK_n. Twist-family surgery finiteness conjecture. For every integer N0N\geq 0, there are only finitely many L-space surgeries (Kn,rn)(K_n,r_n) such that g(Kn)Ng(K_n)\leq N. This is the surgery formulation of the bounded-genus conjecture for twist families, enabled by choosing slopes so that infinitely many bounded-genus L-space knots yield L-space surgeries. It remains open in the stated generality.
