The endpoint monotonicity conjecture for polygonal lines of combinatorial Petrie matrices

Let ACP(n)A\in \mathcal{CP}(n) and let LL be its corresponding polygonal line. If nn is even, consider the endpoints of LL ordered by increasing xx-coordinate. Endpoint monotonicity conjecture. Their yy-coordinates are weakly increasing in that order. The polygonal line is associated with a combinatorial Petrie matrix, and the claim concerns an additional monotonicity property beyond the established non-self-intersection and closed-curve properties. Its resolution is not indicated in the source.
