:: For starters, if 33/32 is a type of second, it would be a subminor second, not a minor second. I should also point out 225/128, which serves as an augmented sixth in just Neapolitan Scales due to 256/255 serving as a diminished third. The common factor in all this? Both intervals fall in ranges where intervals are likely to see multiple functions on a fairly regular basis. In contrast, 11/8 more commonly functions as a fourth than as a fifth- in fact, I call it a "paramajor fourth" in a nod to both it's paradiatonic function and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_fourth_and_minor_fifth the term for that interval found on this page]. You are right in pointing out the need for coherency- but does that mean we should then call 3/2 the "diminished sixth"? I mean, such a view is possible when one considers 12edo...
