But any additional specification will be somehow artificial
and won't make it very natural compared to e.g.
A052410 = smallest k for which n = k^m for some m.

Another way to resolve the ambiguity without being more artificial
would be to let
a(n) = n^(1/k) with the smallest k>1 such that n is a k-th power, k=1
if no such k>1 exists.

This would reproduce a(64)=8, but change a(32) to 2.

and A052410 should be xref'd too, IMO.
BTW, the offset is incorrectly set to 1, but given data starts with a(0)=0.
