Pappas's spin local model flatness conjecture for ramified unitary groups

Let MInaiveM^{\rm naive}_I be the naive local model for a ramified unitary group, and let MIM_I be the closed subscheme defined by conditions a)--f), including the wedge conditions and the Spin condition. The schemes MIM_I and MInaiveM^{\rm naive}_I have the same generic fiber.

Pappas's spin flatness conjecture. The scheme MIM_I is flat over OE\mathcal O_E; equivalently,

MIloc=MI.M^{\rm loc}_I=M_I.

This strengthens the wedge-condition conjecture for general parahoric index sets by imposing the Spin condition. The source presents it as a conjecture, and no resolution is supplied here.
