It can be extended by tempering out [[15/14]] and [[36/35]] in the [[7-limit]], though this could turn the [[3L 4s]] [[mos]] into a [[4L 3s]] [[mos]]. This makes [[7/6]] and [[9/7]] equated to the neutral third, viewing [[6:7:9]] as a tertian chord.

Another notable extension of dicot is [[decimal]], which splits the octave in two for [[7/5]][[~]][[10/7]] by tempering out [[50/49]], and equates [[7/6]] and [[8/7]] to the tritone complement of 5/4~6/5, neutralizing the 6:7:8 chord as well. This represents the structure of 7-limit harmonies in a way that is not based on tertian harmony and a heptatonic system, but rather a decatonic one.
