|The difference between a large and small step.
Cannot be used as a step size in the template, but is used to change the size of other steps.

'''Default names chosen for 5L 2s modmosses'''


* LsLLLLs: Ionian b3 or melodic minor; non-issue since both names are valid.
The criteria for closeness is whichever reported UDP (ignoring alterations) matches the common name. In most cases, the brightest closest mode is either closest or exact.
* sLLLSAs: Neapolitan minor; closest true-mos mode is phrygian.
* LLssLLL: Major locrian; closest true-mos mode is mixolydian.
