Conjecture on prime divisors of rational torsion for GL2-type abelian varieties

Let A/QA/\mathbb Q be a gg-dimensional abelian variety of GL2\operatorname{GL}_2-type, and let \ell be a prime such that AA admits an \ell-torsion point.

Prime-divisor conjecture. If g=2g=2, then

2,3,5,7,11,13,19.\ell \in \\{2,3,5,7,11,13,19\\}.

If g=3g=3, then

2,3,5,7,11,13,17,23,29,31.\ell \in \\{2,3,5,7,11,13,17,23,29,31\\}.

This conjecture gives the predicted possible prime divisors of rational torsion in dimensions 22 and 33. It is suggested by the computational data in the source, but the authors do not know whether the displayed lists are exhaustive.
