Bezdek's Rhombic Dodecahedral Conjecture for parallelohedra

Let PP be a parallelohedron in R3\mathbb R^3 with unit inradius. Bezdek's Rhombic Dodecahedral Conjecture. The surface area of PP is at least

12216.97,12\sqrt{2}\approx 16.97,

which is the surface area of the regular rhombic dodecahedron with unit inradius. The source identifies this as the lattice variant of the Strong Dodecahedral Conjecture, which was proved by Hales, while presenting the Rhombic Dodecahedral Conjecture as an existing conjecture.
