In contrast to the meantone pentic scale, the superpyth pentic is proper and mellow in quality, which is related to the fact that the intervals of the 2.3.7 subgroup cluster around [[5edo]]. As such, this system may be preferred over diatonic for interval classification, with 7/6 becoming a major interval and 8/7~9/8 becoming a minor one, and 49/48~[[28/27]] becoming a chroma.
