TITLE: Does Kechris' conjecture contradict both parts of Martin's conjecture, or just part 1?
QUESTION [15 upvotes]: By Kechris' conjecture (KC) I mean the assertion that Turing equivalence $\equiv_T$ is a universal countable Borel equivalence relation. 
On the other hand, Martin's conjecture (MC) is a long-lasting conjecture about the set of Turing invariant functions as preordered by
$$
f\le_m g\iff f(x)\le_T g(x) \text{ on a Turing cone}.
$$
Roughly speaking, MC says that this structure is as simple as possible. For an introduction to MC, see e.g. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1109.1875.pdf
MC and KC are usually presented as completely contraposed conjectures; in fact, it is well known that if Turing equivalence is universal, then there are Borel Turing-invariant functions which are neither constant on a cone nor increasing on a cone (see https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0001173.pdf at page 4). So, it is provable in ZF + DC that if KC is true, then part 1 of MC is false, even in its weaker "Borel" formulation. 
My question is: does anyone know of any contradiction arising from KC and the second part of MC?

REPLY [2 votes]: This doesn't answer the question, but it cannot be that KC is true and $\leq_m$ is a prewellordering for all the Borel Turing invariant which are not constant a cone (not just the increasing ones). This is because as we show below, this implies there is a $\Delta^1_2$ wellordering of $\mathbb{R}$ (contradicting AD or AC+large cardinals).
We prove the claim: suppose $\equiv_T$ was a universal countable Borel equivalence relation, let $=_\mathbb{R}$ be the equality relation on $\mathbb{R}$, and consider the relation $=_\mathbb{R} \times \equiv_T$ which must be Borel reducible to $\equiv_T$ via some Borel reduction $f$. For each $x \in \mathbb{R}$, let $f_x$ be the Borel Turing invariant function where $f_x(y) = f((x,y))$. These $f_x$ are not constant one a cone and if $x \neq x'$, then for all $y$, $f_x(y) \not \equiv_T f_{x'}(y)$ (because $f$ is a Borel reduction). Hence, the functions $f_x$ are all distinct under $\leq_m$ which wellorders them. So the ordering $x \leq x'$ iff $f_x \leq_m f_{x'}$ is a $\Delta^1_2$ wellordering of $\mathbb{R}$.
