[[Tempering out]] this comma in the 17-limit leads to the rank-6 '''lynchismic ~~temperament~~'''. In the 2.3.5.7.17 subgroup, tempering it out results in the rank-4 '''lynchic ~~temperament~~'''. In either case, it allows you to assign [[10:12:15:17]] as the inverse of [[4:5:6:7]], an otonal chord that would otherwise be [[70:84:105:120]]. [[William Lynch's thoughts on septimal harmony and 22edo|William Lynch]] calls this the minor tetrad, and so equating it with the inverse of the major tetrad is quite useful.

Since 120/119 factors as ([[225/224]])⋅([[256/255]]), it would make sense to temper them both out, so lynchic can be further tempered to a simple extension of [[marvel]] that adds prime 17 known as [[~~Marvel family #Char|~~char]], though it loses accuracy when compared to marvel.
