Antisymmetry conjecture for the matching preorder

From papers

Let Mn\mathcal{M}_n be the set of labelled perfect matchings, equipped with the preorder \preceq. Antisymmetry conjecture. The preorder (Mn,)(\mathcal{M}_n,\preceq) is a poset; equivalently,

MN and NMM=N.M\preceq N\text{ and }N\preceq M\quad\Longrightarrow\quad M=N.

The paper presents this as a consequence that would follow from the switch-generation conjecture, and the supplied parser gives no evidence that it has been resolved.
