Assume that x2≡−3(modp) with p>3 implies p≡1(mod6). For a finite list of primes in that residue class, let P be their product. Every prime divisor of 4P2+3 is greater than three and satisfies that quadratic modular congruence, hence has residue one modulo six. None is listed because 4P2+3≡3 modulo a listed prime.
