Universal formality conjecture for connected subgraph arrangements

Let GG be a connected graph, and let AG{\mathscr A}_G denote its connected subgraph arrangement. For an arrangement A{\mathscr A}, kk-formality is the hierarchy of formality properties defined for 1krk(A)1\leq k\leq \operatorname{rk}({\mathscr A}). Universal formality conjecture. Any AG{\mathscr A}_G is kk-formal for any kk. This is motivated by the fact that connected subgraph arrangements are formal, and that the claim is already known when the rank is at most 44 or when the arrangement is free; computational evidence suggests it more generally, but the universal assertion remains open.
