:: On readability (I realized this when I tried unifying the style in the page ''Prime EDO''): if you read a larger text block, you'll notice how the capital style break the flow of text and results in worse readability. You know why small capitals are common in novels? It's to avoid capital letters so as to ease reading.

:: I'm starting to think "edo" and "n-edo" represent a good compromise, especially considering [[User:FloraC|FloraC]]'s argument. I'm also thinking of a compromise: presenting "EDO or edo" in that order on the [[EDO]] page to insist on the fact that it's an acronym, but choosing "edo" and "n-edo" as a convention for readability on the Wiki. That might seem contradictory, but it allows one to pass from the full term to the acronym to the anacronym more smoothly, from my point of view.
