The conclusion we arrive at here is that because enfactored comma bases don't make any sense, or at least don't represent any legitimately new musical information of any kind that their defactored version doesn't already represent, it is not generally useful to think of enfactored mappings and enfactored comma bases as independent phenomena. It only makes sense to speak of enfactored temperaments. Of course, one will often use the term "enfactored mapping" because enfactored mappings are the kind which do have some musical purpose, and often the enfactored mapping will be being used to represent the enfactored temperament — or temperoid, that is.
