Shifted log-sine basis conjecture for multiple zeta values

Let Zk\mathcal{Z}_{k} be the Q\mathbb{Q}-vector space spanned by multiple zeta values of weight kk, and let Sk,kS'_{k,k} be the subset of shifted log-sine values defined by

Sk,k={π2mSLs(k1,,kn)|2m+k1++kn=k, m0, nk, ki3 odd}.S'_{k,k}=\left\{\pi^{2m}\operatorname{SLs}(k_{1},\dots,k_{n}) \mathrel{}\middle|\mathrel{} 2m+k_{1}+\dots+k_{n}=k,\ m\geq 0,\ n\leq k,\ k_i\geq 3\text{ odd}\right\}.

Shifted log-sine basis conjecture. The set of real numbers Sk,kS'_{k,k} is a basis of Zk\mathcal{Z}_{k}. If true, this would imply Zagier's dimension conjecture for multiple zeta values; it is open.
