The discrete Möbius flattening conjecture for non-contractible polygons

From papers

Let PP be an embedded non-contractible closed polygon in RP2\mathbb{RP}^2, and call a vertex configuration a flattening when it has the polygonal analogue of an inflection point. Discrete Möbius conjecture. The polygon PP has at least 33 flattenings. In the smooth case this is the celebrated Möbius theorem, where flattening means inflection; the discrete statement is proposed as its analogue, and the source calls for a specifically discrete proof.
