Talk:Defactoring terminology proposal: Difference between revisions
Created page with "== Some thoughts == Torsion indeed does not have much relevance to music, as you note. While it is possible to produce a temperament that tempers out (81/80)^2 and not 81/80..." |

:: Thank you Sintel for being the first person to engage with this proposal :) | |||
:: I recognize that a great deal of the writings on RTT found here on the wiki use these more advanced mathematical concepts. My work on RTT deals with making the simplest and most musically practical stuff in RTT easier to understand, so I stick to basic linear algebra (and therefore vector spaces, not modules or groups). There may be RTT ideas that cannot be explained with LA, but I don't think they should cause us to sacrifice pedagogical clarity re: the basics. | |||
:: I'm glad you like the term "temperoids". | |||
:: "Enfactored" is proposed to cover both "contortion" and "torsion". Why do you think that's a bad idea? I think it's better to illuminate their similarity, and if it's important to distinguish them, you can simply say "enfactored mapping" or "enfactored comma basis". | |||
:: I have slightly edited the statement you disagree with to make it less strongly opposed to your perspective, but I otherwise stand by it in this context. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 19:39, 3 January 2022 (UTC) | |||
