Alongside the [[olympia]] (131072/130977) and [[41503/41472|argyria]] (41503/41472), this comma is [[tempering out|tempered out]] in the representation of the 2.3.7.11 subgroup by [[135edo]]. Among the various 2.3.7.11-subgroup micro-commas of 135edo, this comma is notable for having only a single power of 3 in it, allowing 3 to be represented by 2.7.11-subgroup intervals. One notable example is given by [[no-fives subgroup temperaments #Chrysanthemum|chrysanthemum]] temperament, which tempers out the chrysia alongside the [[amaranthinisma]] to provide a 2.3.7.11 interpretation of a chain of nearly pure [[7/4]]'s with errors less than 0.1 cents.
[[Tempering out]] this comma in the full 11-limit results in the rank-4 chrysic temperament (→ [[Catalog of rank-4 temperaments #Chrysic (43923/43904)]]), and in the 2.3.7.11 subgroup, the rank-3 chrysian temperament.
