There are edos whose best fifth is flatter even than 4\7. In such edos major intervals are smaller than minor intervals, augmented smaller than major and diminished larger than minor. We expand our definition of well-ordered intervals to include that within each degree... ≤ dd ≤ d ≤ m ≤ M ≤ A ≤ AA ≤ ... or ... ≤ dd ≤ d ≤ P ≤ A ≤ AA ≤ ..., and where s/c_ ≤ _ ≤ S/C_ (where '_' represents any of ... dd, d, m, (P), M, A, AA ...). In order to obtain well-ordered interval-name sets, we use enharmonic equivalences, replacing diatonic intervals with altered intervals.

In super flat edos, the fifths are so flat that the major third, from four fifths approximates the classic minor third, 6/5 and the minor third approximates the classic major third, 5/4, tempering out 135/128, resulting in [[Mavila temperament]]. Mavila temperament can be defined in the 5-limit using the enharmonic equivalence cM = m, where meantone can be defined by cM = M, and schismatic by cM''n'' = d''n+1'' (superpyth in 2.3.7 can be defined by SM=M). Mavila[7] 3|3 reads the same as Meantone[7] 3|3: P1 M2 m3 P4 P5 M6 m7 P8, however Mavila[9] 4|4 has diatonic interval names:
