Conjectural strengthened Hausdorff-dimension bounds for best-approximation sets

Let Θn(w)\Theta_n(w) denote the set used in the paper for the parameter ww, and let Θn\Theta^n be the corresponding union over w[n,]w\in[n,\infty]. For n2n\ge2 and w[n,]w\in[n,\infty], the proposed strengthened bounds are

dimH(Θn(w))n2+2w2+1,dimH(Θn)>n2+2n2+1.\dim_H(\Theta_n(w))\ge n-2+\frac{2}{w^2+1},\qquad \dim_H(\Theta^n)>n-2+\frac{2}{n^2+1}.

Conjectural refinement. These inequalities should hold for all n2n\ge2 and w[n,]w\in[n,\infty]. This would improve the established lower bounds, whose corresponding numerators are 11 rather than 22, and the source presents the refinement as unsettled.
