Garrett–Rogers conjecture on automaticity of number walls

Let qq be a positive power of a prime, and let S\textbf{S} be an automatic sequence over Fq\mathbb{F}_q. Let Wq(S)W_q(\textbf{S}) denote the number wall associated with S\textbf{S}. Garrett–Rogers conjecture. The number wall Wq(S)W_q(\textbf{S}) is itself a two-dimensional automatic sequence. Number walls of several familiar automatic sequences are known to be two-dimensional automatic, motivating this general statement; the source provides no resolution status for the conjecture.
