* A (circular) scale word is a rank-2 billiard scale iff it is a MOS scale.
* A (circular) scale word is a rank-2 billiard scale iff it is a MOS scale.
* All [[distributionally even]] scales on any finite number of letters are billiard scales.<ref name="sano"/>, but the converse does not hold. This is because not all billiard scales are Fokker blocks; [[blackdye]] can be checked to be a billiard scale by using the initial position (1, 1/√5, 1/√3), but it is not a Fokker block.

* A billiard scale becomes a billiard scale over fewer letters when one removes all instances of some subset of its step sizes. However, the converse is false.

** That’s because projecting we just remove some of the αs from the list, leaving all remaining ones intact.
