The convex polygonal-domain Möbius–hyperbolic inequality conjecture

Let GR2G\subsetneq\mathbb{R}^2 be a bounded convex polygonal domain, and let ρG\rho_G and δG\delta_G denote the Möbius and hyperbolic metrics in GG. The convex polygonal-domain inequality conjecture. There exist points x,y,u,vGx,y,u,v\in G such that

ρG(x,y)<δG(x,y)andρG(u,v)>δG(u,v).\rho_G(x,y)<\delta_G(x,y)\qquad\text{and}\qquad \rho_G(u,v)>\delta_G(u,v).

The claim is motivated by computations for an equilateral triangle and asserts that neither metric inequality holds uniformly even in bounded convex polygonal domains; no resolution is given.
