COMMENTS
More than one pair of a prime and a nonprime may correspond to some of the terms.
Sequence A352707 is read by ascending antidiagonals from array T(n,k). Present sequence is those differences T(n,k) which are on their own antidiagonal number n + k.
.
Array T(n,k) = abs(prime(n)-nonprime(k))

FORMULA
Sums x + y for which x + y = abs(prime(x) - nonprime(y)), for some x and y.
EXAMPLE
7 is a term because the 5th prime 11 minus the 2nd nonprime 4 equals 7 and that is also 5 + 2.
9 is a term because the 2nd prime 3 minus the 7th nonprime 12 equals -9 whose absolute value 9 is also 2 + 7.
4 is a term because the 3rd prime 5 minus the 1st nonprime 1 equals 4 that is also 3 + 1. The absolute value of the 1st prime 2 minus the 3rd nonprime 6 also equals 4 that is 1 + 3, so this pair, too, makes 4 a term of this sequence.
