COMMENTS
A prime p is a base-b deletable prime if when written in base b it has the property that removing some digit leaves either the empty string or another deletable prime.
Deleting a digit cannot leave any leading zeros in the new string. For example, deleting the 2 in 2003 to obtain 003 is not allowed. Thus 2003 is in this sequence but not in A081027.
Complement of all nonprimes and A305352.
