claim: "G.f. A(x) satisfies A(x-x^2) = x + A(x)^2. Conjecture: for n > 1, a(n) == 2 (mod 4) iff n is a power of 2, otherwise a(n) is divisible by 4."

OEIS A393172
Paul D. Hanna’s entry of February 4, 2026 defines the integer coefficient
sequence by A(x-x^2) = x + A(x)^2, with A(x) = x + ..., and states the
quoted conjecture. The formalization addresses the normalized formal power
series and the assertion for every index greater than one.
