What made you think of decimal expansion when solving A? I OEIS'ed it :(

I brute forced when X and 2*X have a lot of digits in common, and searched the digit sequence in OEIS. Found decimal expansion of 19

It also referred me here, to try 383 after 19: magic-square-something

Then I wrote the checker to see if all multiples are present, and indeed 19 and 383 worked.

Next item on that list was 32327, which is too big. So I just guessed that maybe the first primes after 1000 would work instead. 1009 and 1013 didn't work, but 1019 worked. Proof by AC!
