Commentary.
For size n at least four, the second-layer avoiders beginning with n are the image under P of eligible parameter permutations of size n minus two together with n, two, three, up to n minus one, one; their number is the parameter count plus one. The second-layer avoiders not ending with n consist of this family together with two, three, up to n, one; their number is the parameter count plus two.
