[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00017.] The structure theory of Orlicz sequence spaces was initiated in work of Lindberg and Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri in the early seventies. Recently, this study has been continued by Hernandez and Rodriguez-Salinas. In their work, Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri introduced the class of minimal Orlicz sequence spaces and conjectured that these spaces are prime. The only separable prime spaces known are the \(\ell_ p\) and \(c_ 0\), but Lindenstrauss and Tzafriri gave other examples of minimal Orlicz spaces. The purpose of this note is to show that this conjecture is false in general, but that a smaller non-trivial class of strongly minimal spaces is introduced which still has the potential to contain new prime spaces. Our results are achieved by introducing separate necessary and sufficient conditions for a reflexive Orlicz sequence space \(\ell_ G\) to be complemented in another such space \(\ell_ F\).
