Abergravity is the extension of 2.3.5.11-subgroup gravity with prime 7 by extending the streak [[121/120|S11]]~[[100/99|S10]]~[[81/80|S9]]~[[64/63|''S8'']], so that the generalized comma 121/120~100/99~81/80 discussed in [[#2.3.5.11 subgroup (larry)]] is equated with a shrunk [[~]][[64/63]], hence a flat-tending [[~]][[8/7]] is characteristic. It is the [[58edo|58]] & [[65edo|65d]] temperament, also supported by their [[val]] sum of 58 + 65d = [[123edo|123df]]. A sharp edo tuning of prime 7 (and hence a flat tuning of 8/7) is also possible with the extreme tuning [[51edo|51ce-edo]], in which [[1029/1024]] ([[S-expression|S7/S8]]) vanishes. Note that while [[65edo]] doesn't appear in any of the optimal ET sequences, it is a very viable tuning if you like a sharp 7.

An obvious extension to the 13-limit is by noticing the 'squeeze' of equated commas (S8, S9, S10, S11) as suggesting [[144/143]] ({{S|12}}) to be tempered out, which fits the 58 & 65d join, and this is intuitively confirmed by also tempering out [[847/845]] ([[S-expression|S11/S13]]) so that the spacing is made natural, but also because it tempers out [[352/351]] and [[351/350]] in the 13-limit as a natural extension for [[176/175]] ([[S-expression|S8/S10]]), their product. Arguably the best edo tuning for making sense of this spacing is [[58edo]], a great tuning for [[15-odd-limit]] where the distinction between [[12/11]]~[[13/12]] and [[14/13]]~[[15/14]] helps solidifying each other's identity. Alternatively, [[65edo]] gives a [[marvel]] tuning (16/15~15/14), and any tuning between them, such as [[123edo]], distinguishes 14/13, 15/14 and 16/15.
