:::: Evidence of consideration of septimal intervals in the Renaissance and Baroque seems to be merely hard to find, not impossible.

:::: Other Google search results for septimal intervals in Renaissance and Baroque music (and music of Nicola Vicentino and Giuseppe Tartini) give further tantalizing clues of the consideration of septimal intervals in these times, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7-limit_tuning the Wikipedia page on 7-limit tuning] lists some composers going back to that era who considered septimal intervals to include consonant members, but gives little additional details. Overall, the gestalt impression that I get is that the Renaissance and Baroque music communities mostly swept the 7-limit under the rug, but a few people at least poked at it.
