Retained formal statement2 of 5

It follows from a slight strengthening of the Goldbach conjecture that every odd number can be written as nϕ(n)n - \phi(n). In particular, we assume that every even number greater than 6 can be written as the sum of two *distinct* primes, in contrast to the usual Goldbach conjecture that every even number greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two primes.
