COMMENT

The prime gaps q-p (corresponding to a(n)=p in A111870) have increasing record merit (q-p)/log(p). But...

...the prime gaps themselves are almost always monotonically increasing (with very high probability,) but not always! And we do have an exception in the list above: a(14)=148 < a(13)=154!
