For 5L2m4s, we exploit gcd(b, c) = 2 and substitute 2m4s into the template MOS 5L6X (LXLXLXLXLXX). Since 2m4s has three distinct modes (ssmssm, smssms, and mssmss) and 5L6X is primitive, we obtain three distinct scales: LsLsLmLsLsm, LsLmLsLsLms, and LmLsLsLmLss. The first two are a chiral pair of billiard scales, and the last is achiral but not deletion-MOS. All three scales admit short generator sequences of 2-steps, respectively GS(L+s, L+s, L+m), GS(L+s, L+m, L+s), and GS(L+m, L+s, L+s), notably representing all 3 possible rotations of (L+s, L+m, L+s).
