The non-cylindricity conjecture for Fano threefolds of genus 7

Let XX be a smooth Fano threefold such that ρ(X)=1\rho(X)=1, ι(X)=1\iota(X)=1, and g(X)=7\operatorname{g}(X)=7. The non-cylindricity conjecture. Then XX is not cylindrical. The source states that no examples of cylindrical smooth Fano threefolds with Picard rank 11 and genus 77 are known and believes that every such threefold is non-cylindrical; the assertion remains open.
