Mos pattern names: no names refer directly to RTT temperaments now

The following names are suggested for selected small mosses. These names are optional; interval size names and step ratio names can be combined with conventional ''xL ys'' names. For example: ''21edo is the soft [[5L 3s]] tuning and its major mosthird is a neutral third of size 342.9 cents.''

Some of the names come from older temperament-agnostic mos names, such as names (such as ''mosh'') from [[Graham Breed]]'s [[mos naming#Graham_Breed.27s_naming_scheme|mos names]]. These names have been coined so that mosses can be discussed more independently of RTT temperaments.

Some names allude to RTT temperaments, but directly using the temperament name in full is avoided.

1L ns names are not given, except 1L 1s as a special case, because the generator can be anywhere from the octave to to 1\(n+1) and those scales can better be viewed as subsets of larger mosses, for example [[1L 6s]] as a subset of [[7L 1s]] when its generator is in the 7L 1s generator range.
