Uniqueness conjecture for the square grid ZcZ^c

Let ZcZ^c be the square grid circle pattern with 0<c<20<c<2, whose circles are labeled by

V={z=N+iM:N,MZ2, MN},\mathbb V=\{z=N+iM:N,M\in\mathbb Z^2,\ M\geq |N|\},

and which covers the infinite sector with angle cπ/2c\pi/2, with the centers of the border circles C(N+iN)C(N+iN) and C(N+iN)C(-N+iN) lying on the borders of that sector. Uniqueness conjecture. Up to rescaling, there is a unique square grid ZcZ^c. The conjecture proposes a purely geometrical characterization of the discrete map ZcZ^c, replacing its definition through an isomonodromy constraint; the source does not indicate whether the claim has been proved or disproved.
