Positivity conjecture for quantizability of simple modules

From papers

Let MM be a simple module in the category under consideration, and call MM quantizable when its tt-character specializes at t=1t=1 to its qq-character, namely

[M]tt=1:=evt=1([M]t)=χq(M).[M]_t|_{t=1}:={\operatorname{ev}}_{t=1}([M]_t)=\chi_q(M).

Positivity conjecture. Every simple module is quantizable. The supplied status evidence says that this conjecture is proved for reachable simple modules in affine types Cn(1)C_n^{(1)}, F4(1)F_4^{(1)}, and G2(1)G_2^{(1)}; no evidence of a proof for every simple module is supplied, so the universal statement remains open.
