Obviously not much difference.

The first terms of both sequences:

      2^4=           2^3   +     2^3   < 1/1
      2^7=           4^3   +     4^3   <

     72^4=         288^3   +   144^3   < 2/1

If we can write a^4 = p^3 + q^3 p>=q then it seems that
we can also always write a^7 = u^3 + v^3 with u/v=p/q

Can we express v=f(p,q) and thus merge both sequences into one?

Please excuse my ignorance if you see that it's obvious ;-)
