As such, this is an [[equivalence continuum]]. The natural name for it would be something like diatonic-chromatic, due to its equating a certain number of [[2187/2048]] Pythagorean chromatic semitones to a [[16/15]] pental diatonic semitone, but that is already taken by the [[father-3 equivalence continuum]]. It could be apotome-diatonic, but, as all of these temperaments are supported by 7c, the term "ocean" works. | As such, this is an [[equivalence continuum]].

Beyond hadal, there are no more patent vals (the next temperament being the vaguely ridiculous 47cc & 54b). As such, it is a natural place to stop. | Beyond hadal, there are no more patent vals (the next temperament being the vaguely ridiculous 47cc & 54b). As such, it is a natural place to stop. | ||
While, with positive depth, the fifth gets flatter and flatter, with negative depth, it gets sharper and sharper, converging to 4\7 in each case. | While, with positive depth, the fifth gets flatter and flatter, with negative depth, it gets sharper and sharper, converging to 4\7 in each case. I could use atmosphere names here, but really those seem like they'd be better for an alternative to superpyth rather than to mavila. | ||
