Equality of the Borisov–Nuer and Enriques-image loci

Let g=HY2+15g=H_Y^2+1\geq 5 be an odd integer, let Fg\mathcal F_g be the moduli space of polarized K3K3 surfaces of genus gg, and let ΣgFg\Sigma_g\subset\mathcal F_g be the naturally defined locus arising as the image of the Enriques-to-K3K3 map. Let ΞgΣg\Xi_g\subseteq\Sigma_g be the locus of polarized K3K3 surfaces (X,HX)(X,H_X) for which there exist a fixed-point-free involution θ:XX\theta:X\to X and a line bundle MPic(X)M\in\operatorname{Pic}(X) satisfying θHXHX\theta^*H_X\simeq H_X, θMM\theta^*M\simeq M, and (X,HX,M)BNg(X,H_X,M)\in\mathcal{BN}_g. Equality conjecture. The two loci coincide:

Ξg=Σg.\Xi_g=\Sigma_g.

The claim says that every point of the Enriques-to-K3K3 image arises from data satisfying the Borisov–Nuer condition, rather than merely giving the inclusion ΞgΣg\Xi_g\subseteq\Sigma_g. The source does not specify a resolution of this conjecture.
