COMMENTS
The conjecture in A304081 has the following equivalent version: Any even number greater than 4 can be written as the sum of a prime and a term of the current sequence, and also any odd number greater than 8 can be written as the sum of a prime and twice a term of the current sequence.

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 3 since 3 = 2^1 + 5^0 is squarefree.
a(6) = 21 since 21 = 2^4 + 5^1 = 3*7 is squarefree.
