:: One theory is that it uses the Minkowski lattice basis, explained in the ''rank-3 temperament'' page. Still it's not fundamentally different from the mapping as we've discussed on Discord, so this piece of information is a little bit redundant without providing much insight. I remember a few of us have proposed removing it from the temp catalog pages. What do you think?

This is a valid lattice, but why is it better than the original one, or any of the other possibilities? What is the exact method for finding the best lattice?

- Not sure, sorry. I didn't come up with the concept and I'm not a fan of it. It just bothered me that it was never explained anywhere. --Cmloegcmluin (talk) 04:27, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
