| Although this interval can act as a leading tone, it can also act as a trienstone- that is, a third of a tone- since it's one third of the Ptolemaic Major Second.

* Approximates the [[28/27|Septimal Subminor Second]]
* Is the closest approximation of the [[19edo]] Augmented Prime found in this system
* Is one third of this system's approximation of the Ptolemaic Major Second
* Can be used for tonality-flux-based chord progressions
* Is the narrowest interval that can be used in Western-Classical-based harmony and Neomedieval harmony as a proper leading tone
* Is especially useful for voice-leading during modulation.
