“…A series of observations on the increasing geometric complexity of the iterated preimages and how, in principal, the geometric structure should exert significant influence on the underlying arithmetic structure gives rise to the expectation that the tower of
‐points
should eventually stabilize. This expectation has been made precise as the Preimages Question in [
5, Question 8.4(1)] and solved with an affirmative answer when
is a smooth variety with non‐negative Kodaira dimension and
is étale [
1, Theorem 1.2].…”
