'''Bapbo''' temperament tempers out the comma [[256/245]] = S8<sup>2</sup> * S9, equating [[35/32]] with [[8/7]], and making [[5/4]] the square of 8/7, which hence serves as the generator. This comma is over 70 cents, and pathologically equates the outer edges of the clusters around 1\6 and 5\6 to each other without also equating the middle interval with them (if this is done, the tuning reduces to 6edo). Therefore, bapbo can safely be considered an exotemperament - perhaps an analogue to [[mavila]].

The [[DKW theory|DKW]] (2.5.7) optimum tuning states ~5/4 is tuned to 410.773c and therefore ~8/7 is tuned to 205.386c; a chart of mistunings of simple intervals is below.
