Uniqueness of the Fréchet derivative without (SC) and (SB) assumptions

Prove the uniqueness of the Fréchet derivative VT(x), as defined in Definition 4.8, for single-valued mappings between Hausdorff topological vector spaces without assuming (SC) that the domain space is seminorm constructed and (SB) that the family of F-seminorms on the domain is bounded in the sense sup{p(u): p in Fx} < ∞ for every u in X.

Background

Theorem 4.10 establishes uniqueness of the Fréchet derivative under two assumptions: (SC) the domain space is seminorm constructed, and (SB) a boundedness condition on the family of F-seminorms. The authors deem these conditions strong and ask whether they can be removed.

A positive resolution would strengthen the theory by guaranteeing uniqueness of the Fréchet derivative in a much broader class of topological vector spaces.

References

We consider the conditions (SC) and (SB) to be very strong. So, can we prove the uniqueness of Fréchet derivatives without conditions (SC) and (SB)?
