Every squarefree number has an Eulearian number of composite divisors
(if a number is the product of n distinct primes, then it has 2^n-n-1
composite divisors).

Nobody has found a prime index Fibonacci numbers that isn't
squarefree, but on the other hand, nobody has proved that they're all
squarefree, either.

My question is still how one might know that smallish solutions (say, up to a given size) will not come from unsolved, future Fibonaccis.
