Mock rational point divisor conjecture for rank-2 bielliptic modular curves

Let XX be a bielliptic modular curve of genus 22 and level NN, and write Jac(X)Jac(X) for its Jacobian. A mock rational point over Q(D)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D}) is a point of the type considered by the quadratic Chabauty computations in the source. Mock rational point divisor conjecture. If Jac(X)Jac(X) has rank 22 over Q\mathbb{Q} and XX has a mock rational point over Q(D)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D}), then DD divides NN.

This conjecture is based on the explicit computations for genus 22 modular curves satisfying the paper's LMFDB conditions; the source explicitly says that the resulting list of algebraic points is not provably exhaustive, and gives no resolution of the conjecture.
