Critical-point Schwarzian boundary conjecture for univalent rational functions

From papers

Let UR\mathcal{U}_R be the indicated class of univalent rational functions, let T\mathbb{T} be the unit circle, and let SRS_R denote the Schwarzian derivative of RR. Critical-point Schwarzian boundary conjecture. If RURR\in\mathcal{U}_R has at least one critical point in T\mathbb{T}, then

SRSQ.S_R\in\partial\mathbf{S}_Q.

The conjecture is motivated by examples with critical points on T\mathbb{T} whose Schwarzians are known to lie on this boundary, but the source explicitly says that no proof is known.
