'''Ptolemismic nicema''' is an unnoticeable 11-limit comma which marks the difference between 69 intervals of [[100/99]] and the octave. For EDOs N up to ~20000, it is tempered if and only if 69 divides N.

Tempering it out means that [[11/10]] and [[10/9]] are set exactly 1/69th of the octave apart.
