Abstract: For $nge4$, we show that there are infinitely many formally contact isotopic embeddings of $(S{T}^{\ast }{S}^{n-1},x{i}_{mathrmstd})$ to $(S^{2n-1},x{i}_{mathrmstd})$ that are not contact isotopic. This resolves a conjecture of Casals and Etnyre except for the $n=3$ case. The argument does not appeal to the surgery formula of critical handle attachment for Floer theory/SFT.
