The terminality conjecture for Hochschild Swiss cheese actions

From papers

Let P\mathcal{P} be a coloured categorical operad and let AA be a P\mathcal{P}-algebra. A Swiss cheese action on AA is an action in the sense of the paper, and Hoch(A)\mathrm{Hoch}(A) is the Hochschild object associated with AA.

Terminality conjecture. The object Hoch(A)\mathrm{Hoch}(A) is terminal in the homotopy category of Swiss cheese actions on AA.

This is the universal-property formulation that identifies the Hochschild object as the universal Swiss cheese action. The supplied text does not establish the claim or give resolution evidence, so its status is open.
