Algebraic-geometric genericity conjecture for the combinatorial derived matroid

Fix a field F\mathbb{F} with algebraic closure F\overline{\mathbb{F}}. Let MM be representable over F\mathbb{F}, with E(M)=n|E(M)|=n and r(M)=kr(M)=k, and let V(M)Fk×nV(M)\subseteq\overline{\mathbb{F}}^{k\times n} be the variety of matrices representing MM. For each F\overline{\mathbb{F}}-representable matroid NN on the circuit set C=C(M)\mathcal{C}=\mathcal{C}(M), let VN(M)={RV(M):δOW(R)=N}V_N(M)=\{R\in V(M):\delta_{OW}(R)=N\}. Algebraic-geometric genericity conjecture. For every matroid Nδ(M)N\neq\delta(M) on C\mathcal{C}, if VN(M)V_N(M) is non-empty, then it has positive codimension in V(M)V(M). This would imply that representations yielding the combinatorial derived matroid form a full-dimensional locus, and over growing finite extensions would make them asymptotically almost all representations.
