Burstein–Jones Wilf-equivalence conjecture for Dumont-1 permutations

Let D2n1\mathfrak{D}^1_{2n} denote the set of Dumont-1 permutations of length 2n2n, and let D2n1(τ)\mathfrak{D}^1_{2n}(\tau) denote those avoiding the pattern τ\tau. Burstein–Jones's Wilf-equivalence conjecture. For all n0n\geq 0,

D2n1(2143)=D2n1(3421).|\mathfrak{D}^1_{2n}(2143)|=|\mathfrak{D}^1_{2n}(3421)|.

The conjecture asserts that the two avoidance sequences are equal for every nn. They agree computationally through n=10n=10, but the source says that the conjecture is difficult to prove and only partial progress was known.
