EXAMPLE
a(10) = 1 since the distinct prime divisors of 2*10 = 20 are 2 and 5, A020639(20 - 2) = 2 and A020639(20 - 5) = 3, so only prime 2 is to be considered.
a(15) = 3 since the distinct prime divisors of 2*15 = 30 are 2, 3 and 5, A020639(30 - 2) = 2 and A020639(30 - 3) = 3 and A020639(30 - 5) = 5, so all three prime 2, 3 and 5 are to be considered.
