Generic local o-minimality of the open core without monadic second-order arithmetic

Let R{\mathscr{R}} be an expansion of (R,<,+)(\mathbb{R},<,+), and let R{\mathscr{R}}^\circ denote its open core. The structure (P(N),N,,s)({\mathcal P}(\mathbb{N}),\mathbb{N},\in,s) is the two-sorted structure consisting of the power set of N\mathbb{N}, N\mathbb{N}, membership, and successor. Generic local o-minimality conjecture. If R{\mathscr{R}} does not define an isomorphic copy of (P(N),N,,s)({\mathcal P}(\mathbb{N}),\mathbb{N},\in,s), then R{\mathscr{R}}^\circ is generically locally o-minimal. The claim is stated as a special case of the paper's main conjectural picture connecting noiselessness, Cantor sets, dense ω\omega-orders, and monadic second-order theory.
