Existence of exponential growth rates for hereditary ordered graph properties

Let P\mathcal{P} be a hereditary property of ordered graphs, and suppose there is a real constant cc such that Pn<cn|\mathcal{P}_n|<c^n for every nNn\in\mathbb{N}.

Exponential growth-rate conjecture. The limit

limn(Pn)1/n\lim_{n\to\infty}(|\mathcal{P}_n|)^{1/n}

exists.

The claim asks whether every exponentially bounded hereditary property of ordered graphs has a well-defined exponential growth rate. The supplied text presents it as an open question and gives no resolution.
