I would say that in this sentence


> "Numbers n such that the least Fibonacci number F_k which is a multiple
of n has a prime index, i.e. k is in A000040."

there is no ambiguity at all. It is clear what "multiple" means. That's the
best choice of definition.

And I agree that  4181, 10877, 75077 has enough digits to be
submitted as a new sequence.
