For context, the quote in the title is from the chain of thought of the model when it reached the crucial point that ultimately led to disproving the conjecture. Full quote:
"Suppose optimistically that K is a high-degree CM field in which a fixed rational prime p splits completely into principal prime ideals. Then the construction is frightening".
