The '''whitewood family''' of [[temperament]]s [[tempering out|tempers out]] the apotome, [[2187/2048]]. Consequently the [[3/2|fifth]]s are always 4/7 of an [[octave]], a distinctly flat 685.714 [[cent]]s. While quite flat, this is close enough to a just fifth to serve as one, and some people are fond of it.
