Connectivity conjecture for maximal weakly separated collections

From papers

Let W(k,n)\operatorname{W}(k,n) be the set of maximal collections of pairwise weakly separated kk-subsets of [1n][1\dots n], and let a (2,4)(2,4)-move replace one of the two indicated members of a maximal collection by the other while preserving weak separability and maximality. Connectivity conjecture. For any collections C,BW(k,n)\mathcal{C},\mathcal{B}\in\operatorname{W}(k,n), there is a sequence of (2,4)(2,4)-moves transforming C\mathcal{C} into B\mathcal{B}. The source states this as a conjecture after proving that individual (2,4)(2,4)-moves preserve weak separability and maximality; no general proof is supplied.
