By default, all ranges include their endpoints. For example, a hard tuning is considered a quasihard tuning. To exclude endpoints, the modifier ''strict'' can be used, for example ''strict hyposoft''.

Note that mosses with soft-of-basic step ratios always exhibit [[Rothenberg propriety]], or are ''proper'', whereas mosses with hard-of-basic step ratios do not, or are ''not proper'', with one exception: mosses with only one small step per period are always proper, regardless of the step ratio. It has been argued, however, that this is not a particularly important property, especially as larger moses tend to sound more distinct when L/s > 1.
