This temperament is characterized by tempering out [[9/8]], and has been termed a "troll temperament".  It is named not only on account of 9/8 being tempered out, but also on account of being supported by EDOs that many people consider unusable- ostensibly due to them not having any good musical tone to work with.  Surprisingly, it has extensions all the way up to the 11-limit, as confirmed by the data from [http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?ets=2%2C+4&limit=11 x31eq].  The original 5-limit is basically the 3-limit music of [[2edo]] with the addition of harmonic 5 represented by an independent generator.
