Equivalence between twisted bimodules and loosely discrete opfibrations

From papers

Let \lModl\lModl be the 2-category of loosely discrete opfibrations and \TwModl\TwModl the 2-category of twisted bimodules, with the 2-functor \twsection:\lModl\TwModl\twsection{-}: \lModl \to \TwModl given by the sections construction. For a twisted bimodule M:\dblD\twbimodto\dblEM: \dbl{D} \twbimodto \dbl{E}, the collage construction produces a loosely discrete opfibration whose source and target are respectively equivalent to \dblD\dbl{D} and \dblE\dbl{E}. Sections–collage equivalence conjecture. The 2-functor

\twsection:\lModl\TwModl\twsection{-}: \lModl \to \TwModl

is an equivalence of 2-categories, with inverse given by the collage construction. The expected inverse relationship is straightforward on the underlying objects and elements, while recovering the comparison cells requires a coherence principle for twisted bimodules; the correspondence of the remaining data is likewise expected modulo these coherence difficulties.
