Infinitely many moduli for every order in the infinite-range case

About 2 years old · traced to

Let (a,b)(a,b) be an (a,b)(a,b)-Fibonacci sequence, and suppose it falls under case (vi) of the finite-orders conjecture, namely the case where the range of ω(a,b)(m)\omega_{(a,b)}(m) is conjectured to be infinite. Infinite-orders conjecture. For every natural number nn, there exist infinitely many positive integers mm such that

ω(a,b)(m)=n.\omega_{(a,b)}(m)=n.

This strengthens the assertion that the range is infinite by predicting infinitely many moduli for each individual order. The source gives this as a further conjecture and supplies no resolution.
