The symbols were chosen from the Sagittal repertoire so they progressively increase in width and don't violate flag arithmetic. Beyond those requirements, the choice might have been arbitrary, but it turned out to be possible to choose symbols whose tempered-JI meaning is valid in most of the EDOs they notate. | The symbols were chosen from the Sagittal repertoire so they progressively increase in width and don't violate flag arithmetic.

And when a symbol only has flags on one side, they are always on the left for the apotome-fractions and on the right for the limma-fractions. | |||

This notation is used for EDOs with fifths of 791.5 cents or less. These are the rose EDOs on the [https://sagittal.org/#periodic-table Periodic Table], except that 11-EDO is usually notated as a subset of 22. | This notation is used for EDOs with fifths of 791.5 cents or less.
