COMMENTS
The definition implies that after 0 these are also all numbers n such that (A002828(1+n) = 1), (A002828(2+n) = 2), (A002828(3+n) = 3) and (A002828(4+n) = 4).
Because A002828 obtains value 1 only at squares, every term must be one less than a square.
In the terms of tree defined by edge relation A255131(child) = parent, ("the least squares beanstalk"), these numbers are the nodes with four children (maximum possible).
Either of the above facts implies that this is a subsequence of A276573.
Indexing starts from zero, because a(0)=0 is a special case in this sequence, as it is only number which is its own child in the least squares beanstalk tree.
