[seqfan] Re: a(n) divides the sum of the first a(n) terms of T.

Both Eric's sequence A243700 and Max's A243864 have
very striking graphs! (I'm glad Max provided so many terms, now we
can really see what is going on. When the sequence is mysterious,
we need a LOT of terms.)

The graphs suggest that one should be able to find at least a probabilistic
model for this problem.
