Monotonicity conjecture for sets of quantum p-cost operators

From papers

For a separable Hilbert space H\mathcal{H}, let Cp(H)\mathbf{C}_p(\mathcal{H}) denote the set of all possible pp-cost operators. Monotonicity conjecture for quantum pp-cost operators. For parameter values 0<pp0<p\leq p'\leq\infty, one should have

Cp(H)Cp(H).\mathbf{C}_{p}(\mathcal{H})\subseteq \mathbf{C}_{p'}(\mathcal{H}).

The conjecture formalizes the expectation that increasing the parameter enlarges the set of possible cost operators. No resolution is given in the source.
