%F a(n) = A308409(n) * (n+1). - _Andrei Zabolotskii_, Jul 02 2025
%e a(0) = 1: empty structure.
%e a(1) = 4: a single vertical or horizontal edge, rooted at one of the two vertices.
%e a(2) = 18: six unrooted two-edge polyedges (a straight path oriented in 2 possible ways and an L-shaped path oriented in 4 possible ways), each rooted at one of the three vertices.
