A point of consideration: would the 2.3.5.17-subgroup temperament tempering only [[256/255]] be "charismic"? If so what would the full [[17-limit]] temperament be? "charismaic"? Or alternatively, and maybe more sensically, have the 2.3.5.17 temperament be "charic" and the [[17-limit]] be "charismic". But I prefer to reserve "charismic" for the 2.3.5.17-subgroup rank 3 temperament if possible. --[[User:Godtone|Godtone]] ([[User talk:Godtone|talk]]) 00:05, 28 December 2023 (UTC) | A point of consideration: would the 2.3.5.17-subgroup temperament tempering only [[256/255]] be "charismic"?

: I never liked the thing where, for commas that are in a subgroup, the full-prime limit version gets the normal "-ismic" and the subgroup one gets "-ic" instead. The full prime-limit temperaments are hardly practical. For example, for the semitonisma and centisma, the full-prime limit temperament is RANK 6 (I have seldom seen anything above rank-3) and the subgroup temperaments are rank-2. That being said, that naming looks like something of a convention now (discussion about changing it is off-topic here), so the 2.3.5.17 rank-3 temperament should probably be charic.

The full prime-limit temperaments are hardly practical. For example, for the semitonisma and centisma, the full-prime limit temperament is RANK 6 (I have seldom seen anything above rank-3) and the subgroup temperaments are rank-2 (so definitely deserve the "normal" name).
