-L 1M 2s is a 5-note [[chiral]] [[maximum variety|maximum variety-3]] scale. [[User:Fitzgerald Lee|Fitzgerald Lee]] suggests the name nicepent as it is the precursor to [[nicetone]] (3L 2M 2s). The first edo that supports it is [[10edo]], followed by [[12edo]], [[13edo]] and [[15edo]].
+Nicepent is a 5-note [[maximum variety|maximum variety-3]] scale. It is also [[chiral]], which means that there are two distinct variations of the scale, left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH). The name was suggested by [[User:Fitzgerald Lee|Fitzgerald Lee]] as it is the precursor to [[nicetone]] (3L 2M 2s) and a pentatonic scale. The first edo that supports it is [[10edo]], followed by [[12edo]], [[13edo]] and [[15edo]].
