[[Tempering out]] this comma in the full 17-limit results in the rank-6 '''diatismic''' temperament, or in the 2.3.5.17 subgroup, the rank-3 '''diatic''' temperament.

Since 136/135 = ([[225/224]])⋅([[256/255]]), it would make sense to temper out both [[256/255]] ({{S|16}}) and [[289/288]] ({{S|17}}), thereby tempering diatic to [[srutal archagall]], which is equivalently described as "[[charic]] [[semitonic]]". This can be further restricted to the 2.3.17/5-subgroup {136/135}, called fiventeen, which is a rank-2 temperament generated by an octave and a perfect fifth.

~~=== Fiventeen ===~~

In fiventeen, [[17/15]] is equated with [[9/8]], so it implies a [[supersoft]] [[pentic]] [[pentad]] of [[~]]30:34:40:45:51. [[17edo]] makes a good tuning especially for its size, which gives a [[supersoft]] pentic scale corresponding approximately to a just [[20/17]] tuning, although [[80edo]] might be preferred for an approximately just [[51/40]] to optimize plausibility slightly more, and [[97edo]] (= 80 + 17) and [[114edo]] (= 97 + 17) do even better in striking a balance between 80edo's more stable tuning and that having 20/17 more accurate (as in 17edo) is useful because of the more convincing suggestion of the two 15:17:20 chords present in the fiventeen pentad. The same is true of the related rank-3 temperament diatic, described below, for which the [[optimal ET sequence]] is much more characteristic of optimized tunings, finding [[34edo]], then [[80edo]], then [[114edo]] (= 34 + 80) and even [[194edo|194bc-edo]] (= 80 + 114), though because of its focus on primes 5 and 17 it misses 97edo as a tuning, and slightly less optimized though still interesting [[63edo]] and [[143edo]] (= 63 + 80) tunings are found in the optimal ET sequence for fiventeen.
