COMMENTS
The version with subsequences of contiguous numbers is A054261.
The sequence is nondecreasing, by definition.
FORMULA
a(n) <= A054261(n). - David A. Corneth, Aug 28 2019
EXAMPLE
The series starts as A054261, but 112357 is followed by 112357 because 13 can be obtained with a subsequence '1','3' which is interrupted by '2'.
