%N Number of connected multigraphs with n edges and rooted at two indistinguishable vertices whose removal leaves a connected graph.

%C This sequence counts the CDE-descendants of a single edge A-Z.

%C [C]onnect: different nodes {P,Q} != {A,Z} may form a new edge P-Q.

%C [D]issect: any edge P-Q may be dissected into P-M-Q with a new node M.

%C [E]xtend: any node P not in {A,Z} may form a new edge P-Q with a new node Q.

%C These basic operations were motivated by A338487, which seemed to count the CDE-descendants of K_4 with edge A-Z removed.
