Classification conjecture for four-dimensional normed spaces of type IV

From papers

Let KK^{\lor} be the spherical completion of the underlying valued field KK, let VKV_K denote the relevant multiplicative value subgroup, and let \sim denote the equivalence relation on KKK^{\lor}\setminus K used in the classification. For parameters x,x1,y,y1,z,z1KKx,x_1,y,y_1,z,z_1\in K^{\lor}\setminus K and t,t1,s,s1R>0t,t_1,s,s_1\in\mathbb{R}_{>0}, define

(E,):=([(1,0),(0,1),(x,0),(y,z)],t×s),(E,\|\cdot\|):=([(1,0),(0,1),(x,0),(y,z)],|\cdot|_t\times|\cdot|_s), (E1,):=([(1,0),(0,1),(x1,0),(y1,z1)],t1×s1).(E_1,\|\cdot\|):=([(1,0),(0,1),(x_1,0),(y_1,z_1)],|\cdot|_{t_1}\times|\cdot|_{s_1}).

Suppose that both EE and E1E_1 are of type IV4\mathrm{IV}_4. Classification conjecture. The spaces EE and E1E_1 are isomorphic if and only if:

tt1,ss1VK;\frac{t}{t_1},\frac{s}{s_1}\in V_K; xx1,zz1;x\sim x_1,\qquad z\sim z_1; ([1,x,y],)([1,x1,y1],).([1,x,y],|\cdot|)\cong([1,x_1,y_1],|\cdot|).

This would provide a classification of four-dimensional normed spaces of type IV4\mathrm{IV}_4, a structure theorem for which is currently unknown; the source presents the assertion as an expected conjecture, and no resolution is supplied.
