In many notation systems (e.g. [[FJS]], [[HEJI]]), it is an imperfect unison, as it is the stack of an [[33/32|undecimal quartertone (33/32)]] and a [[64/63|septimal comma (64/63)]], neither of which changes the [[scale|scale degree]] or [[interval quality|quality]]. However, it is only flat of the [[256/243|Pythagorean minor second (256/243)]] by a [[896/891|pentacircle comma (896/891)]]. For this reason it could be called the '''pentacircle minor second'''.

Further more, it is close in size to [[21/20]], a 7-limit superparticular interval most commonly treated as a minor second, differing from it by [[441/440]], about 3.9¢. The single degree of [[88cET]] can function as both 21/20 and 22/21, thus tempering out 441/440.
