Pisier's Grothendieck-pair conjecture with the bounded approximation property

From papers

Let E=(En)n1\mathcal{E}=(E_n)_{n\geqslant 1} be a sequence of finite-dimensional Banach spaces with dimEn=n\dim E_n=n, and let FF be a Banach space with the bounded approximation property. A pair (E,F)(\mathcal{E},F) is a Grothendieck pair if there is a constant C>0C>0 such that

for every nNn\in\mathbb{N}. Pisier's Grothendieck-pair conjecture. If (E,F)(\mathcal{E},F) is a Grothendieck pair, then either dimF<\dim F<\infty or (E,2)(\mathcal{E},\ell_2) is also a Grothendieck pair. This asks for a classification of Grothendieck pairs; it is known in the paper when FF is a GL-space, but remains open for general Banach spaces with the bounded approximation property.
