::::: I have made the change re: rational vs. irrational that you explain here.
::::: I note that you posted on Facebook about this idea to change ''AFS'' to ''EFS'' here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/xenwiki/permalink/3341743592758288 As I expected, Paul (with whom I co-designed the naming system which includes AFS) reiterated the same point I made above, which is that "equal sequence" is insufficient to convey the idea of a sequence which iterates by an equal amount, while "arithmetic" captures that idea exactly and succinctly. Mike Battaglia (who was not involved in the creation of this system, by the way) also noted that "EPS" would suggest a sequence of all the same pitch, not a sequence of changing pitches. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 23:55, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
::::: The conversation about "orthogonal" moved to [[Talk:IDO]]. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 19:58, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
