This complexity is defined as a norm, which is (mostly) a stronger condition than being a height function.
In fact, the whole reason it is useful is because it is a norm, not a height.
For this reason, the title should be either "Tenney norm", or "Tenney harmonic distance", because that's what it was called originally.

Move to Tenney norm

This complexity is defined as a norm, which is (mostly) a stronger condition than being a height function. In fact, the whole reason it is useful is because it is a norm, not a height. For this reason, the title should be either "Tenney norm", or "Tenney harmonic distance", because that's what it was called originally. – Sintel🎏 (talk) 18:18, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
