Squares mapping, or something else?: It would work for Valentine on a hypothetical Lumatone XL

I was trying to come up with explanatory text for the Squares mapping (currently the last mapping on the page), and discovered that unlike all of the other mappings, neither the Squares generator (11\31, 9/7 ~ 23/18 ~ 14/11) nor its square (22\31) appears as the relation between adjacent keys, but instead the generator is right and slightly down via a jump between adjacent keys, over to the next non-adjacent key; the cube (33\31 --> 2\31) is adjacent down and right, but that seems more of a rotated Valentine mapping.  Other adjacent key intervals are 7\31 (~7/6, rotated Myna) and 9\31 (~11/9, neutral third).  So maybe this mapping should be renamed, and maybe another mapping made for Squares (or maybe rename this one Myna/Squares or something)?  (Rotating Valentine chops up the scale too much due to insufficient vertical space, so I wouldn't put that in the name, although if something like a hypothetical XL-size Lumatone with sufficient vertical space came out, it would work for that.)
