::::: There is a difference between presenting septimal meantone as ''a valid'' framework for interpreting meantone, and presenting it as ''the canonical'' framework for interpreting meantone. The former seems appropriate and historically justified; but taking the term “meantone” to mean “septimal meantone” by default instead does the latter, which is not consistent with how meantone has been presented in ''most'' (not ''all'') writing on conventional music theory.
::::: I am ok with presenting septimal meantone as a separate interpretation on par with conventional 5-limit meantone when it applies. I am not ok with conflating the two, as though users of meantone should be assumed to always intend the 7-limit interpretation.
