A pentatonic framework, as elucidated in Kite Giedraitis's [http://www.tallkite.com/AlternativeTunings.html Alternative Tuning guide], is far more amenable to interseptimal intervals than the traditional Western heptatonic framework.
A pentatonic framework, as elucidated in Kite Giedraitis's [http://www.tallkite.com/AlternativeTunings.html Alternative Tuning guide], is far more amenable to interseptimal intervals than the traditional Western heptatonic framework. Such a framework is also discussed on the page [[Pentatonic Functional Just System]].

Interseptimal intervals are now easily named. However there are now hard-to-name "interpental" intervals which would be neutral intervals in the heptatonic framework, containing such ratios as 12/11, 11/9, etc. This is because interseptimal intervals are the neutral intervals with respect to the parent [[mos]] [[2L 3s]] of the diatonic mos [[5L 2s]].

So composing in a pentatonic framework may allow interseptimal intervals to play much more pivotal roles than usual.
