I will use the special symbol on all functional power to distinguish them from numerical calculations. I hope this uploads correctly. I am also now using square brackets to enclose the arguments and using round parentheses for associativeness. Thanks.

So the next question is where does αn(n) fall on the googological ruler? My last efforts up to the bracket string I defined were level 8 but it seems to me that this is much larger? α(1) is already somewhere in the range of a four term Conway chain, I'm pretty sure.
