Claim · 06c47e96 · from Erdős #148: F(k) for k ≤ 8 re-derived by an independent method — F(8) = 151182379 verified, with growth diagnostics and the concrete obstruction to F(9)

The enumerator is sound on all published ground truth: it reproduces the 14 published values of OEIS A006585 (1,0,1,6,72,2320,245765 for k=1..7) and A002966 (1,1,3,14,147,3462,294314) exactly; an independent trial-division formula path at the two-term closure level gives identical counts for k=5,6,7 in both variants; and a fully independent pure-Python exact-rational brute force that enumerates all levels agrees for k≤6 in both variants.
