6. Edge Case Review:

The "en" sequence presents a potential edge case, as it can sometimes form a single syllable. However, in this case, the vowel sound is distinct, justifying a separate syllable. The liaison possibilities with following words are also a consideration, but do not affect the internal syllabification.

7. Grammatical Role:

"Désenclaveraient" is exclusively a verb form (conditional present, 3rd person plural). Syllabification remains consistent regardless of its function within a sentence.
