Its n disjoint triples give a product of degree-three multilinear polynomials, with all-variable coefficient (−2)n. Hence its degree is 3n and its exact quantum query complexity is at least ⌈3n/2⌉. At the input consisting of repeated 110 triples, each of the 2n one bits is a disjoint sensitive singleton. Thus block sensitivity is at least 2n, implying a bounded-error quantum query complexity lower bound Ω(n​).
