Poincaré-polynomial classification conjecture for rationally elliptic complex varieties

Let XX be a rationally elliptic complex algebraic variety, possibly singular, and let PX(t)P_X(t) denote its Poincaré polynomial. For an even-dimensional sphere S2niS^{2n_i} and a complex projective space CPmj\mathbb{CP}^{m_j}, write their Poincaré polynomials as PS2ni(t)P_{S^{2n_i}}(t) and PCPmj(t)P_{\mathbb{CP}^{m_j}}(t).

Poincaré-polynomial conjecture. There exist integers k,s,ni,mjk,s,n_i,m_j such that

PX(t)=i=1kPS2ni(t)×j=1sPCPmj(t).P_X(t)=\prod_{i=1}^k P_{S^{2n_i}}(t)\times\prod_{j=1}^s P_{\mathbb{CP}^{m_j}}(t).

The source calls this a naive conjecture motivated by known examples. It does not give a resolution.
