To David Corneth,  I agree with the others who
replied.  Those sequences are too ill-defined
to warrant inclusion!

By the way, you mentioned A211096 and A211099 as sequences that are related
to the OEIS.  I don't think that is true.  Their definitions have nothing
to do with that  OEIS.

Best regards
Neil
