:: Lastly, the consensus we came to on Facebook was, rather than just arbitrarily organizing them into families, we ought to be somewhat methodical in figuring out which ones really matter, by ranking them the same way we do temperaments and etc. So I hope that any proposed reorganizational scheme will either be compatible with this structure, or leave us adequate room to do this properly later.

::: It ''is'' a nontrivial problem. The question is which root temperament is the best. For one, I most recently moved ''guiron'' from ''schismatic family'' to ''gamelismic clan'' not only because it's a strong extension (i.e. the pergen remains unchanged) of slendric and a weak extension (i.e. the pergen changes) of helmholtz, but also because the mapping of 2.3.7 is much simpler than that of 5, resulting in more abundant septimal intervals in a small scale. Such moves are currently based on my intuition and can be explained thru reasons like above but I don't have a rigorous approach yet. I feel the same that temperament ''families'' and ''clans'' are the more prioritized categories and ''collections'' such as ''marvel temperaments'' are less of a concern. I'll post on the FB group when I got more ideas. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 09:41, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
