This sequence can be used for filtering certain factorial base related sequences, because it matches only with any such sequence b that can be computed as b(n) = f(A276076(n)), where f(n) is any function that depends only on the prime signature of n (some of these are listed under the index entry for "sequences computed from exponents in ...").
Matching in this context means that the sequence a matches with the sequence b iff for all i, j: a(i) = a(j) => b(i) = b(j). In other words, iff the sequence b partitions the natural numbers to the same or coarser equivalence classes (as/than the sequence a) by the distinct values it obtains.
Any such sequence should match where the result is computed from the nonzero digits (that may also be > 9) in the factorial base representation of n, but does not depend on their order. Some of these are listed on the last line of the Crossrefs section.
Note that as A275735 is present in that list it means that the sequences matching to its filter-sequence A278235 form a subset of the sequences matching to this sequence. Also, for A275735 there is a stronger condition that for any i, j: a(i) = a(j) <=> A275735(i) = A275735(j), which if true, would imply that there is an injective function f such that f(A275735(n)) = A278236(n), and indeed, this function seems to be A181821.
