Jun 10, 2010 at 6:40 | comment | added | Victor Protsak | Sadly, people rely on technology so much nowadays that it gets increasingly unlikely that it will $\textit{ever}$ be proved. | |

Also, it's fairly easy to check that in small cases the commutator scheme is reduced, though getting it in general seems to be beyond current technology. | |
