The prime metasignature counts the multiplicities of each value in the prime signature of n. For example, 2520 has prime indices {1,1,1,2,2,3,4}, sorted prime signature {1,1,2,3}, and sorted prime metasignature {1,1,2}.
EXAMPLE
The prime indices, sorted prime signatures, and sorted prime metasignatures of selected n:
n = 1: {} -> {} -> {}
n = 2: {1} -> {1} -> {1}
n = 6: {1,2} -> {1,1} -> {2}
n = 12: {1,1,2} -> {1,2} -> {1,1}
n = 30: {1,2,3} -> {1,1,1} -> {3}
n = 60: {1,1,2,3} -> {1,1,2} -> {1,2}
n = 210: {1,2,3,4} -> {1,1,1,1} -> {4}
n = 360: {1,1,1,2,2,3} -> {1,2,3} -> {1,1,1}
