COMMENTS
If for row n, k > A089576(n-1), we interpret T(n-1,k) = 0.
Also the length of d = T(n,k) - T(n-1,k) in row n of A347285 such that d > 1, with 0 <= d <= 1.
Compactification of A347284 via indices k of primorials A002110(k). This is the most efficient compactification of A347284, superior to binary compactification via A347287. It employs the fact that A347284 concerns products of primorials, i.e., is a subset of A025487.
We can construct row n of A347285 by summing a constant array of a(k) 1's for 1 <= k <= n-1.

FORMULA
A347284(n) = Product_{k=1..n} A002110(a(k)).
EXAMPLE
Relation of a(n) and irregular triangle A347285, placing "." after the term in the current row where T(n,k) no longer exceeds T(n-1,k). Since the rows of A347285 reach a fixed point of 0, we interpret T(n,k) for vacant T(n-1,k) as exceeding same.

a(3) = 1 since row 3 of A347285 has {3,1} while row 2 has {2,1}; only the first term of the former exceeds the analogous term in the latter.
a(4) = 3 since row 4 = {4,2,1} and row 3 = {3,1}; all 3 terms of the former are larger than the analogous term in the latter, etc.
