[[Tempering out]] this comma leads to the '''kalismic temperament''', which splits the [[octave]] into two equal parts, each representing 99/70~140/99. Tempering it out also means that [[10/9]] and [[11/7]] are 1/2-octave apart, as well as are [[11/10]] and [[14/9]]. Odd-numbered edos cannot temper it out, as they do not have a semioctave.
