If not for the problem of failing to cover the complete gamut (such as on a hypothetical XL-size Lumatone having at least 485 keys within the span of five octaves), the mildly sharp (patent val) version would be a respectable mapping to use at the intersection of [[Immunity]] with [[Orson]]; while the flat version would be a plausible (although overly complex) [[Flattone]] mapping (using the 97bcc val).

The bb (highly sharp) val falls on [[Magic]]; but for Magic, the fifth is not the generator, and optimal tunings for Magic have a better fifth anyway, so a diatonic mapping does not suit the purpose of using 97edo in a Magic-like temperament (assuming a derivative that gives easy access to both the sharp fifth and the patent fifth), even if one had a hypothetical XL-sized Lumatone.

Despite the missing notes, [[Bryan Deister]] has used this mapping in [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/U1X3oo9CGHg ''Washing Machine Heart - Mitski (microtonal cover in 97edo)''] (2025).
