Differs from A345543 at term 17 because 409 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 3^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 5^3 + 5^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 6^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 5^3 + 5^3 + 5^3 = 1^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 5^3 + 6^3 = 2^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 + 4^3.
Likely finite.

EXAMPLE
257 is a term because 257 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 4^3 + 4^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 5^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 = 1^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 + 4^3.
