COMMENTS
A prime index of n is a number m such that prime(m) divides n. The multiset of prime indices of n is row n of A112798.
FORMULA
a(n) <= A166469(n).
EXAMPLE
The sparse submultisets of the prime indices of n = 8 are {{},{1},{1,1},{1,1,1}}, with maximization {{1,1,1}}. So a(8) = 1.
The sparse submultisets of the prime indices of n = 462 are {{},{1},{2},{4},{5},{1,4},{2,4},{1,5},{2,5}}, with maximization {{1,4},{1,5},{2,4},{2,5}}, so a(462) = 4.
The prime indices of n together their a(n) maximal sparse submultisets for n = 1, 6, 210, 462, 30030, 46410:
{} {1,2} {1,2,3,4} {1,2,4,5} {1,2,3,4,5,6} {1,2,3,4,6,7}
------------------------------------------------------------
{} {1} {1,3} {1,4} {2,5} {1,3,6}
{2} {1,4} {1,5} {1,3,5} {1,3,7}
{2,4} {2,4} {1,3,6} {1,4,6}
{2,5} {1,4,6} {1,4,7}
{2,4,6} {2,4,6}
{2,4,7}

CROSSREFS
This is the maximal case of A166469.
For binary instead of prime indices we have A384883, maximal case of A245564.
The greatest number whose prime indices are one of these submultisets is A385216.
A034839 counts subsets by number of maximal runs, for strict partitions A116674.
A384887 counts partitions with equal lengths of gapless runs, distinct A384884.
A384893 counts subsets by number of maximal anti-runs, for partitions A268193, A384905.
