1) I strongly agree that the major 7th should be 7 not #7.
2) "Augmented unison" is not a self-contradictory reference, it's a standard music theory term. It even has its own wikipedia page. In some 19edo contexts, it could be called a dim 2nd and written bbII. But in other contexts, #I makes the most sense. For example, I - III - #Im - VI - I. Likewise bI is best for Im - bI - Im (actual musical example from Pink Floyd's Shine On You Crazy Diamond verse).
3) WWHWWWH doesn't makes sense in 19-edo. Better to say LLsLLLs (large and small).
4) What you call quanta are better called edosteps, a more self-explanatory term.
Everything else you said I agree with :) By the way, "2 3 and 6 7... come in a wide variety of tonal flavours," these are called imperfect degrees, 1, 4 & 5 are perfect degrees. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 02:17, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
