The seven-Pfaffian conjecture for the rank-one catalecticant image

From papers

Let C1C_1 denote the rank-one locus of the relevant catalecticant variety, let AA be a point on C1C_1, and let ϕ(A)\phi(A) be its image under the map ϕ\phi. Seven-Pfaffian conjecture. If AA is a point on C1C_1, then ϕ(A)\phi(A) is defined by the 77 cubic Pfaffians of a 7×77 \times 7 skew-symmetric matrix. This would extend the known description for points on C2C_2, whose images are defined by the cubic Pfaffian of a 6×66 \times 6 skew-symmetric matrix; the claim is presented as a dimension-count prediction and its resolution is not supplied here.
