[[Tempering out]] this comma equates the two septimal tritones (i.e. [[7/5]] and [[10/7]]) with each other, leading to temperaments where [[sqrt(2/1)]] approximates both. In the 2.5.7 subgroup, this is known as the jubilic temperament, and the comma is thus known as the '''jubilisma'''. In the full 7-limit, this comma equates [[15/14]] and [[21/20]].

In the [[2.5.7 subgroup]], this is known as the jubilic temperament, and the comma is thus known as the '''jubilisma'''. In the full 7-limit, this comma further equates [[15/14]] and [[21/20]] and enables all the [[jubilismic chords]].  


''It cannot be tempered out if all of the consonances of the 7-odd-limit are distinct'', but it ''can'' be equated with other commas; for example:
