de Boor's maximal-hyperplane conjecture for geometrically characterized sets

Let XX be a GCd,nGC_{d,n} set in Rd{\mathbb R}^d: it has (n+dd){n+d\choose d} points, and for every pXp\in X there is a product of nn linear forms that equals 11 at pp and 00 at every other point of XX. A hyperplane is maximal if it contains (d1+nn){d-1+n\choose n} points of XX. de Boor's conjecture. Every GCd,nGC_{d,n} set contains a maximal hyperplane. This is one of de Boor's proposed higher-dimensional generalizations of the Gasca–Maeztu conjecture; the source gives no resolution.
