The identity-generation conjecture for mutations of perm algebras

Let AA be a mutation of a perm\mathfrak{perm} algebra over a field of characteristic zero, and let f(a,b,c)f(a,b,c), WA(a,b,c)\mathcal{WA}(a,b,c), H(a,b,c,d)\overline{H}(a,b,c,d), and I(a,b,c,d)\overline{I}(a,b,c,d) denote the four stated identities. The two additional degree-four identities are

a,b,c,d+c,d,a,b=a,d,c,b+c,b,a,d,\langle \langle \langle a,b \rangle, c \rangle, d \rangle +\langle \langle \langle c,d \rangle, a \rangle, b \rangle=\langle \langle \langle a,d \rangle, c \rangle, b \rangle +\langle \langle \langle c,b \rangle, a \rangle, d \rangle,

and

a,b,d,c+c,b,a,d+b,a,c,d=a,b,d,c+b,c,a,d+c,a,b,d.\langle \langle a,b \rangle, \langle d,c \rangle \rangle +\langle \langle c,\langle b,a \rangle \rangle, d \rangle +\langle \langle \langle b,a \rangle, c \rangle, d \rangle=\langle \langle \langle a,b \rangle, d \rangle, c \rangle +\langle \langle \langle b,c \rangle, a \rangle, d \rangle +\langle \langle \langle c,a \rangle, b \rangle, d \rangle.

Identity-generation conjecture. Every multilinear identity in the mutation of a perm\mathfrak{perm} algebra over a field of characteristic zero is a consequence of

f(a,b,c)=0,WA(a,b,c)=0,H(a,b,c,d)=0,I(a,b,c,d)=0,f(a,b,c)=0,\quad \mathcal{WA}(a,b,c)=0,\quad \overline{H}(a,b,c,d)=0,\quad \overline{I}(a,b,c,d)=0,

and the two additional degree-four identities displayed above. The claim concerns the identity theory of mutations and is motivated by computations showing that these six identities generate all identities through degree seven; whether they generate every multilinear identity in all degrees remains open.
