L4DEL explanations are a separate layer. They do not change the Lean source. Intuition is explanatory prose; numbered items are a reading path; sources link the wording back to evidence.

Ben Green's Open Problem 62

Let $p$ be a large prime, and let $A$ be the set of all primes less than $p$. Is every $x \in \{1, \ldots, p-1\}$ congruent to some product $a_1 a_2$ where $a_1, a_2 \in A$?

This is a problem of Erdős, Odlyzko, and Sárközy [105] from 1987.
