:: Thanks for that fantastic explanation, Sintel. You said it better than I could have. I look forward to your thoughts on simple and integer uniform map. —[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 18:44, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

:: I hadn't heard of this 9' (9-prime) thing before. But it's really cool! And I have to say that using the ' symbol to literally prime-ify a number is a stroke of expressive genius. If there's any way you can could up a link to the old Facebook discussion that'd be fantastic. If not, no big deal, (Facebook isn't really good for that, is it), but I would just like to read more about it if I could. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 20:33, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

::: I'm not sure how to search Facebook for something like "9'", lol, but it goes all the way back to 2011 in tuning-math #18580. The basic idea hasn't changed very much since then, except that people didn't like the term "inconsistent JI," "inconsistent mapping," etc, so I suggested "paraconsistent JI" at a later date sometime on Facebook. I am glad you like the prime notation although I have never been sure how to do things if you are adding multiple of these paraprimes, let's say - if you are in 2.3.5.9'.15', what is 135', 9'*15 or 9*15'? I guess you could just write it explicitly as 9'*15 or 9*15' if it's ambiguous. [[User:Mike Battaglia|Mike Battaglia]] ([[User talk:Mike Battaglia|talk]]) 20:44, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
