Claim: A MV3 scale always has some subset (made by combining some of the two-step intervals into one) that is also MV3.

suppose we have three kinds of strings T1, T2, T3 of Y's and Z's.
suppose we have three kinds of strings T1, T2, T3 of Y's and Z's.
If the occurrence of T1 has an X inserted in the middle, then we can scoot it left or right until there are no X's in the middle
If the occurrence of T1 has an X inserted in the middle, then we can scoot it left or right until there are no X's in the middle
then we (can assume we) have one of T1+X, T2+X, or T3+X. Scoot this left and you lose the X on the right, and gain another non-X letter on the left so you get a fourth variant of this interval class that contains T1 + X, a contradiction.
