=== Proof of the alternating-gens (AG) property (except in the case xyxzxyx) ===
=== Proof of the alternating-gens (AG) property (except in the case xyxzxyx) ===
We now prove that except in the case xyxzxyx, if the scale is pairwise well-formed, the scale is generated by two chains of generators, either both of size ''m'' or one with size ''m'' and one of size ''m-1'' (AG) Equivalently, the scale can be built by stacking alternating generators.

To eliminate xyxzxyx we manually check all words up to length 7... (todo)
