:::::::: > IMO the significance of a subharmonic chord should be determined not by whether it's commatically close to a harmonic chord, but by its consonance.

:::::::: As I said, inflecting the third and sixth by 36/35 flips the o/utonality without changing the intervals' degrees or qualities. This is a very useful property, very helpful for memorizing the 7-limit chords, and I ~~think~~ you ~~should~~ start ~~to consider~~ it, in addition to all the other things I've shown and explained to you.

This is a very useful property, very helpful for memorizing the 7-limit chords, and I highly recommend you to start considering it, in addition to all the other things I've shown and explained to you.

::::::::: I tested 24:20:16:14:9 vs. 9:7:6:5:4. The latter sounds much better to me. It's hard to have a productive discussion when we can't agree about the relative consonance of various voicings. I made a poll on discord about this. Perhaps that will clarify things.

:::::::::: I don't think polling helps, and as I said, naming chords isn't solely about which chord "sounds better" (the phrase you used in your poll).

:::::::::: I suppose despite all the compelling reasons I've shown you, you've made up your mind, and we're not going anywhere with this discussion. Given that, we'll have to describe both approaches in these chord pages.
