Retained formal statement3 of 4

Instead of asking for sets of primes, ask only that all elements in the sets be relatively coprime.

Cambie has found several examples when this weakened version is true. For example, 1=(1+15)(12+13) 1=\left(1+\frac{1}{5}\right)\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}\right) and 1=(1+141)(12+13+17). 1=\left(1+\frac{1}{41}\right)\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{7}\right).
