The Sprague–Grundy conjecture for square rectairs

From papers

A rectair is the rectair family used in CRIM, and G\mathcal G denotes its Sprague–Grundy value. Let rr and kk be integers with 0k<r0\leq k<r. Square-rectair conjecture.

G(Rr,rk)={0r is even or k<r1,1r{3,5}, r is odd, and k=r1,2otherwise.\mathcal G(R_{r,r}^k)= \begin{cases} 0& r\text{ is even or }k<r-1,\\ 1& r\in\{3,5\},\ r\text{ is odd, and }k=r-1,\\ 2&\text{otherwise.} \end{cases}

The conjecture extends the known values for several rectair families, but the source provides no proof or resolution.
