Conjecture: this sequence is finite - it has 7 terms only. Conjecture verified up to first 10^5 primes.
This sequence is related to the Goldbach Strong Conjecture.

EXAMPLE
|
a(1)=2 because all even numbers 2 < n <= 2*2 (there is just one such number: 4) can be expressed as a sum of 2 only: 4=2+2.
a(2)=3 because 4=2+2, 6=3+3.
a(3)=5 because 4=2+2, 6=3+3, 8=5+3, 10=5+5.
a(4)=7 because 4=2+2, 6=3+3, 8=5+3, 10=5+5, 12=5+7, 14=7+7.
a(5)=13 (and is not 11) because 20 cannot be expressed as a sum of two primes from a set {2,3,5,7,11} but all even numbers 2 < n <= 26 can be expressed as a sum of two primes from a set {2,3,5,7,11,13}.
