Maximal non-Gorenstein locus conjecture for symmetric orbit closures

Let YγY_{\gamma} be an orbit closure, and let Maxsing(Yγ)\operatorname{Maxsing}(Y_{\gamma}) be the set of Bruhat-maximal orbits along which YγY_{\gamma} is singular. Let MaxnonGor(Yγ)\operatorname{MaxnonGor}(Y_{\gamma}) be the set of Bruhat-maximal orbits along which YγY_{\gamma} is non-Gorenstein. Maximal non-Gorenstein locus conjecture.

MaxnonGor(Yγ)Maxsing(Yγ).\operatorname{MaxnonGor}(Y_{\gamma})\subseteq\operatorname{Maxsing}(Y_{\gamma}).

Equivalently, a maximal non-Gorenstein orbit should be a maximal singular orbit. The source explains the motivation and reports verification for all (p,q)(p,q) with p+q7p+q\leq 7 and many cases of (p,q)=(4,4)(p,q)=(4,4); the general statement remains open.
