The matroid rank conjecture for Hadamard products of linear spaces

From papers

Let L1,,LdREL_1,\dots,L_d \subseteq \mathbb{R}^E be finite-dimensional linear spaces, and let M1,,MdM_1,\dots,M_d be their algebraic matroids. Write rMir_{M_i} for the rank function of MiM_i, and let \star denote the Hadamard product of linear spaces. Hadamard-product matroid conjecture.

M(L1Ld)=M(rM1++rMdd+1).\mathcal{M}(L_1\star\dots\star L_d)=\mathcal{M}(r_{M_1}+\dots+r_{M_d}-d+1).

This conjecture would generalize the preceding theorem from Hadamard products of two linear spaces to products of an arbitrary finite number of linear spaces. The source does not state a resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
