Symmetry conjecture for fully commutative elements in rank-two Shephard groups

Let aa and bb be positive integers. In the notation a[b]aa[b]a for the rank-two Shephard group with endpoint parameters a,aa,a and braid parameter bb, and b[a]bb[a]b for the group with these parameters exchanged, consider fully commutative elements having a unique reduced expression, enumerated by their length. Rank-two symmetry conjecture. The enumeration by length is identical for the groups a[b]aa[b]a and b[a]bb[a]b. This conjecture arises from enumeration tables for exceptional Shephard groups; the supplied source gives no proof or resolution.
