When applied to arbitrary n, the "primorial deflation" (term coined by Matthew Vandermast in A181815) induces the splitting of n to two factors A328478(n)*A328479(n) = n, where we call A328478(n) the non-deflatable component of n (which is essentially discarded), while A328479(n) is the deflatable component. Only if n is in A025487, then the entire n is deflatable, i.e., A328478(n) = 1 and A328479(n) = n.
According to Daniel Suteu, also the ratio (A319626(n) / A319627(n)) can be viewed as a "primorial deflation". That definition coincides with this one when restricted to terms of A025487, as for all k in A025487, A319626(k) = a(k), and A319627(k) = 1. - Antti Karttunen, Dec 29 2019
