The rectangular shuffle theorem for rectangular paths

From papers

Let m,nNm,n\in\mathbb{N}, let d=gcd(m,n)d=\gcd(m,n), and let pm,np_{m,n} be the symmetric function associated with rectangular paths. For a rectangular path πLRP(m,n)\pi\in\mathsf{LRP}(m,n), let dinv(π)\mathsf{dinv}(\pi) and area(π)\mathsf{area}(\pi) denote its statistics, and let xπx^\pi denote its monomial weight. Write [r]q[r]_q for the qq-integer. Rectangular paths conjecture. One has

[m]q[d]qpm,n=πLRP(m,n)qdinv(π)tarea(π)xπ.\frac{[m]_q}{[d]_q}p_{m,n}=\sum_{\pi\in\mathsf{LRP}(m,n)}q^{\mathsf{dinv}(\pi)}t^{\mathsf{area}(\pi)}x^\pi.

The conjecture extends the rectangular shuffle theorem from rectangular Dyck paths to rectangular paths. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence for this statement, although it notes verification by computer in a bounded range and a proof in the special case of coprime side lengths.
