FWIW, about a week ago I added
https://oeis.org/A245569 : Numbers n such that binomial(2^n-1,n) is squarefree.
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 11, 12, 21, 28, 29, 31, 51, 54, 55, 57

Motivated by the existence of the subsequence A246699 of squarefree
terms in this sequence.

Actually
- the additional restriction on n only removes 4 terms 4, 12, 28, 54
(for such a short sequence it could be frowned upon adding the
subsequence of squarefree terms and the further subsequence of (5)
primes.... how about subsequences of non-squarefree (in analogy to
A237043), odd and even terms ? [This was not a suggestion...])
- the other seq. (A246699, now has an additional 21 and does not have
any more "binomial" in the NAME, which makes it impossible to find it
based upon the previous mail...) says "fini"(te) without comment or
reference. I think this should be fixed.
- I don't know a reference and/or proof of the finiteness, so I
preferred to add "conjectured to be...", at the risk of exhibiting my
ignorance if this is a (well(?)) konwn result...

Thanks for adding such information if it exists.
