FORMULA
a(n) = A057567(n) - A001055(n).
a(n) = Sum_{d|n, d>1} A001055(n/d).
EXAMPLE
The pointed factorizations of n for n = 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30:
((2)) ((4)) ((6)) ((8)) ((12)) ((24)) ((30))
((2)*2) ((2)*3) ((2)*4) ((2)*6) ((3)*8) ((5)*6)
(2*(3)) (2*(4)) (2*(6)) (3*(8)) (5*(6))
((2)*2*2) ((3)*4) ((4)*6) ((2)*15)
(3*(4)) (4*(6)) (2*(15))
((2)*2*3) ((2)*12) ((3)*10)
(2*2*(3)) (2*(12)) (3*(10))
((2)*2*6) ((2)*3*5)
(2*2*(6)) (2*(3)*5)
((2)*3*4) (2*3*(5))
(2*(3)*4)
(2*3*(4))
((2)*2*2*3)
(2*2*2*(3))

CROSSREFS
The additive version is A000070 (strict: A015723).
The unpointed version is A001055 (strict: A045778, ordered: A074206, listed: A162247).
Allowing point (1) gives A057567.
Choosing a position instead of value gives A066637.
The ordered additive version is A336875.
A000005 counts divisors.
A001787 count normal multisets with a selected position.
A001792 counts compositions with a selected position.
A006128 counts partitions with a selected position.
A066186 count strongly normal multisets with a selected position.
A254577 counts ordered factorizations with a selected position.
