When using a non-diatonic mos, the JKL… note names represent notes of the current mos. Only J has a fixed meaning (middle J = middle C); the remaining note names depend on both the mos pattern and the current mode of the mos (under our soft rule about what note names mean). For example, when you are writing in the LSLLSLSL mode of 5L3s, the “natural” note names JKLMNOPQ represent the scale LSLLSLSL on J.
