COMMENTS
Conjecture: The sequence contains all numbers n such that n and n+1 are both in the sequence A074940, or, equivalently, such that neither n nor n+1 is in the sequence A005836. - L. Edson Jeffery, Dec 02 2015
The asymptotic density of this sequence is 1 (Burns, 2016). - Amiram Eldar, Jan 26 2021
