Why not exhausting the factors of 5 in the target interval? (10/9)^4 to 32/21 or (6/5)^4/2 to 28/27 are way more useful identities

'''4375/4374''', the '''ragisma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] which is the difference between a stack of two [[27/25|large limmas]] and [[7/6]], and the difference between a stack of 3 [[6/5|classical minor thirds]] and [[140/81]]. It is the smallest 7-limit [[superparticular]] ratio. 4375/4374 is also equal to ([[25/18]])<sup>2</sup>/([[27/14]]) and the difference between a [[kleisma]] (S25<sup>2</sup> × S26) and a [[marvel comma]] (S15 = S25 × S26 × S27), hence its expression as S25 / S27 which directly implies it can be expressed as (28/24 = [[7/6]])/([[27/25]])<sup>2</sup>.
