Regular-equivalence of 2-knot diagrams and sphere eversions

For each diagram $D$ of a $2$-knot, we provide a way to construct a new diagram $D'$ of the same knot such that any sequence of Roseman moves between $D$ and $D'$ necessarily involves branch points. The proof is done by developing the observation that no sphere eversion can be lifted to an isotopy in $4$-space.
