LI-conditioned extremal-order conjecture for the Chebyshev psi function

Let ψ(x)=pkxlogpk\psi(x)=\sum_{p^k\leq x}\log p^k be the weighted prime-counting function. Assume the Riemann hypothesis, and let the nontrivial zeros of the zeta function be written as ρn=1/2+iγn\rho_n=1/2+i\gamma_n. The LI-conditioned extremal-order conjecture. If the imaginary parts γn\gamma_n satisfy the stated LI conjecture, then

lim infxψ(x)xx(loglogx)2=1π,lim supxψ(x)xx(loglogx)2=1π.\liminf_{x\to\infty}\frac{\psi(x)-x}{\sqrt{x}(\log\log x)^2}=-\frac{1}{\pi},\qquad \limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{\psi(x)-x}{\sqrt{x}(\log\log x)^2}=\frac{1}{\pi}.

This refines the usual conditional bounds for ψ(x)x\psi(x)-x and depends on both the Riemann hypothesis and linear independence of the zero ordinates; the supplied text does not establish it.
