Instead of saying "On the other hand, if one should be so bold as to treat the Archytas' comma as a musical interval in its own right", it would be better to reorganize this article after the example of the [[128/125|Diesis]], which has an Approximations section, and following that a Temperaments section which has sub-sections for "As a comma" and "As an interval" (and while we're at it, can we get it a non-comma name?).  After all, NOT tempering out the Archytas comma is a requirement for many septimal temperaments to work properly, where tempering it out results in a d (or even dd) val, although in equal divisions of the octave smaller than 44EDO, it will unavoidably be inflated.

Naming

Hey, Xenwolf, I don't know about you, but "Archytas' comma" strikes me as a unique name. It's true that I'd prefer 64/63 as title for this article, but still... --Aura (talk) 15:48, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Organization, and the Archytas comma as a musical interval in its own right

Instead of saying "On the other hand, if one should be so bold as to treat the Archytas' comma as a musical interval in its own right", it would be better to reorganize this article after the example of the Diesis, which has an Approximations section, and following that a Temperaments section which has sub-sections for "As a comma" and "As an interval" (and while we're at it, can we get it a non-comma name?). After all, NOT tempering out the Archytas comma is a requirement for many septimal temperaments to work properly, where tempering it out results in a d (or even dd) val, although in equal divisions of the octave smaller than 44EDO, it will unavoidably be inflated.
