It seems that A000961 gives the positions of zeros.
FORMULA
a(n) = A000005(n) - A326196(n).
EXAMPLE
From n = 12 we can reach any of the following of its 6 divisors: 12 (with an empty combination of transitions), 4 (as A009194(12) = A009195(12) = 4), 2 (as A009195(4) = 2) and 1 (as A009194(4) = 1 = A009194(2) = A009195(2)). Only the divisors 3 and 6 of 12 are not included in the directed acyclic graph formed from those two transitions (see illustration below), thus a(12) = 2.
