However, 5\30 is 200{{c}}, which is a good (and familiar) approximation for 9/8, and hence 30edo can be viewed inconsistently, as having a 9/1 at 95\30 as well as 96\30.

Instead of the 18\30 fifth of 720 cents, 30edo also makes available a 17\30 fifth of 680 cents. It is possible to interpret this fifth as [[mavila]] temperament, but the 360-cent [[5/4]] may be undesirable. An alternative option is [[shallowtone]] temperament, although it is of very high [[badness]].  When 30edo is used for pelogic, 5\30 can again be used inconsistently as a 9/8.
