You and I have different definitions of cheesy.

And if we fixed the bug and further extended the definition of p: in a 
consistent and compatible way, s.t. (-k)&p: ↔️ k&p:^:_1 for all k, then we 
could have:

   3 (-@[ p: p:\) i.7

The cheesiest yet.

But, returning to the actual interpreter, rather than ever more theoretical 
ones, today we can say:

   (3 */\ p:) i. 7
30 105 385 1001 2431

Which I think is actually a pretty way to describe the series.
