OEIS A228558 and A231329
Robert Price authored both entries, and neither target COMMENT has a separate signature. The two conjectures are therefore attributed to the entry author.
One general prime-quotient exponent lemma settles both comments. The classical odd-power factorization behind the lemma is cited as background, not claimed as a new result.
