Hara–Watanabe conjecture on strongly FF-regular type couples

Let (X,Δ)(X,\Delta) be a couple, meaning that XX is a normal variety and Δ\Delta is an effective Q\mathbb{Q}-Weil divisor. A couple is of strongly FF-regular type if it has the corresponding characteristic-pp singularity property, and it is of klt type if there exists an effective Q\mathbb{Q}-Weil divisor Δ\Delta' such that (X,Δ+Δ)(X,\Delta+\Delta') is klt.

Hara–Watanabe conjecture. (X,Δ)(X,\Delta) is of strongly FF-regular type if and only if (X,Δ)(X,\Delta) is of klt type.

For pairs, strongly FF-regular type is equivalent to klt by the Hara–Watanabe theorem, so this conjecture extends that relationship from pairs to couples. The conjecture is stated in the source without a resolution status.
