The generator of sensipent can be accurately interpreted as [[31/24]][[~]][[40/31]], tempering out [[961/960]] ({{S|31}}), so that the [[31-limit]] quartertones [[32/31]] and [[31/30]] are equated, as sensipent splits [[16/15]] into two equal parts. This gives the 2.3.5.31-subgroup version of sensipent discussed in [[#Subgroup extensions]]. It is essentially the only simple and accurate extension that preserves sensipent's tempered 5-limit structure.

This extension can be applied to many other extensions. Note that optimal ET sequences here often omit some [[val]] of [[84edo]], which is a good tuning for interpreting the generator as 31/24~40/31 such that 24:31:40 is a chord of [0, 1, 2] generator steps, by preferring a flatter fifth as in the 2.3.5.31-subgroup extension, as the 5-limit generator is both complex and relatively high in damage for its complexity.
