The 2-limiting word is the limit of the n-th iterates for n == 2 mod 5.
The number of letters (0's and 1's) in the n-th iterate is given by A288243(n), for n >= 0.

EXAMPLE
The first two n-th iterates for n == 2 mod 5: 0111000 and 01110001110111111011111011110111000. (The lengths of the first 10 such iterates are 7, 35, 106, 242, 473, 849, 1442, 2346, 3685, 5642.)
