The only notable low-harmonic-entropy scale for this [[MOSScales|MOS]] pattern is [[Sensipent_family|sensi]], in which two generators make a 5/3. The harmonic entropy of sensi[5] is still fairly high relative to other pentatonic scales, such as meantone. It's also improper.

The TAMNAMS system uses the name '''antipentic''' as it uses opposite step sizes to the “classic” pentatonic scale ([[2L 3s]]).
