The converse of the extension property proposition for diagram operads

Let SS be a diagram, let DD be a subdiagram, and let P{\cal P} be an operad. An (S,D)(S,\underline D)-diagram of P{\cal P}-algebras is an SS-diagram of differential graded vector spaces in which the vertices of DD carry P{\cal P}-algebra structures and the arrows in DD are homomorphisms of P{\cal P}-algebras. The couple (S,D)(S,D) has the P{\cal P}-extension property if the canonical map

ϕ:P(S,D)PS\phi:{\cal P}_{(S,\underline D)}\to{\cal P}_{\underline S}

has a left inverse ψ:PSP(S,D)\psi:{\cal P}_{\underline S}\to{\cal P}_{(S,\underline D)} satisfying ψϕ=1 ⁣ ⁣1\psi\circ\phi=1\!\!1.

Extension property converse. If every (S,D)(S,\underline D)-diagram of P{\cal P}-algebras can be extended to an SS-diagram of P{\cal P}-algebras, then the couple (S,D)(S,D) has the P{\cal P}-extension property.

The preceding proposition proves that the extension property is sufficient for extending every relative diagram; this conjecture asserts that the condition is also necessary.
