=="Double-Bosanquet"==

This is called '''"Double-Bosanquet"''' since the diatonic scale is the same as in the [[Standard Lumatone mapping for Pythagorean|~~Bosanquet-Wilson~~ layout]], except with rows of non-diatonic pitches inserted every other row. In other words it has exactly 2x as many pitches as Bosanquet, and if you removed all the half-sharps, half-flats etc. and slid the remaining rows together, it would become Bosanquet.

Pros:

* Over 5 complete octaves.

* Neutral seconds have good ergonomics, because they have the same shape that major seconds do in ~~Bosanquet-Wilson~~.

* Neutral seconds have good ergonomics, because they have the same shape that major seconds do in Bosanquet–Wilson.

Cons:

* Worse ergonomics for major seconds.

* May be unfamiliar or confusing to people familiar with normal Bosanquet.

* In particular the "sharp" direction is now down toward the player (not up away from the player as in normal Bosanquet), which may be confusing.
