m note missingness of 84edo
Move the opening note to a reasonable place. Don't shock the readers with stuff like 31/24 or 40/31 without proper context

The second comma of the comma list determines which 7-limit family member we are looking at. Sensi adds [[126/125]]. Sensei adds [[225/224]]. Warrior adds [[5120/5103]]. These are all strong extensions that use the same period and generator as sensipent.

==== Subgroup extensions ====
The generator of sensipent can be accurately interpreted as [[31/24]][[~]][[40/31]], tempering out [[961/960]] ({{S|31}}), so that the [[31-limit]] quartertones [[32/31]] and [[31/30]] are equated, as sensipent splits [[16/15]] into two equal parts. This gives the 2.3.5.31-subgroup version of sensipent discussed in [[#Other subgroup extensions]]. It is essentially the only simple and accurate extension that preserves sensipent's tempered 5-limit structure.
This extension can be laid onto many other extensions. Note that optimal ET sequences here often omit some [[val]] of [[84edo]], which is a good tuning for interpreting the generator as 31/24~40/31 such that 24:31:40 is a chord of [0, 1, 2] generator steps, by preferring a flatter fifth as in the 2.3.5.31-subgroup extension, as the 5-limit generator is both complex and relatively high in damage for its complexity.
[[#Sensible|Sensible]] is a less sparse subgroup extension present in smaller edo tunings like [[111edo]] at the cost of a little accuracy, considered immediately below.

The aforementioned extension with prime 17 through tempering out 1089/1088 implies tempering out [[256/255]] ({{s|16}}), as {{nowrap| 256/255 {{=}} (22/17)/(165/128) }}.
The aforementioned extension with prime 17 through tempering out 1089/1088 implies tempering out [[256/255]] ({{s|16}}), as {{nowrap| 256/255 {{=}} (22/17)/(165/128) }}.


Sensible uses the accurate mapping of prime 31 in sensipent, so that the sensible generator serves many roles in subgroup harmony, but it is not ~[[9/7]] or ~[[13/10]] which would incur more damage. Its [[S-expression]]-based comma list {{nowrap| is {([[8019/8000|S9/S10]], [[256/255|S16]],) [[529/528|S23]], [[576/575|S24]], [[961/960|S31]], [[1024/1023|S32]], [[1089/1088|S33]]} }} implying also tempering out [[496/495]] (S31⋅S32) and [[528/527]] (S32⋅S33) as well as [[16337/16335]] (S31/S33) = ([[17/15]])/([[33/31]])<sup>2</sup>. A notable [[patent val]] tuning not appearing in the optimal ET sequence is [[157edo]].

Bisensi has a 1/2-octave period and the generator can be taken as ~9/7 or its semi-octave complement, ~11/10. Its ploidacot is diploid delta-heptacot (pergen (P8/2, ccP5/7)).

(As 84edo is even, one might be interested to know its [[17-limit]] val is 84def, corresponding to a strong flat tendency.)

Sendai is an accurate extension of sensipent with primes [[23/16|23]] and [[29/16|29]] found by [[User:VIxen|VIxen]]. It is named after the body of acquis designed to prevent disaster risk and improve civil protection through international cooperation and after the city in Japan of the same name where it was signed (and where an international music competition is held).
