Ehrhart Positivity of Schubitopes

Monical, Tokcan and Yong conjectured that Schubitopes, the generalized permutahedra arising as Newton polytopes of Schubert polynomials and of Demazure characters of $\mathrm{GL}_n$, are Ehrhart positive. Disproved by an explicit Schubitope whose Ehrhart polynomial has a negative coefficient in its monomial expansion.
