Scholze's uniqueness conjecture for six-functor formalisms

Let EE be a class of morphisms, and suppose every morphism ff in EE is nn-truncated for some integer nn possibly depending on ff. Let IEI\subseteq E and PEP\subseteq E be classes such that every morphism in II factors as a morphism in II followed by a morphism in PP.

Scholze's uniqueness conjecture. The six-functor formalisms produced by the Liu–Zheng construction are exactly those for which every morphism in PP is cohomologically proper and every morphism in II is cohomologically étale.

The question concerns whether the intrinsic classes of cohomologically proper and cohomologically étale morphisms characterize precisely the six-functor formalisms arising from the Liu–Zheng construction, under the stated truncation and factorization assumptions.
