COMMENTS
If A132050(n) has offset 1 (proposed),
A132049(n)/A132050(n) = 2, 4, 3, 16/5, 25/8, 192/61,... leads to Pi (Euler, 1735)
A132049(n)/a(n) = (2/1=2, 4/4=1, 3/3=1, 16/16=1, 25/5=5, 192/64=3,... ). The second bisection 1, 1, 3, 17, 155, begins like A110501.
Conjecture: a(2n) is always a divisor of A132049(2n).
