A comptonesque temperament (not to be confused with the compton family) is a temperament tempering out the difference between a power of 3 and the nearest power of 2.

Previously unnamed comptonesque temperaments are named after elements of creative projects by Vector. (Besides ntiscifer and tervenna, these are not necessarily permanent names.)
