The name of this temperament family stomps on a well-established musical term that means something entirely different. It introduces needless ambiguity in phrases like “augmented triad”, “augmented fifth”, and “augmented seventh chord”. This temperament family should be renamed to something less confusing to allow the mainstream terminology to remain unambiguous.

“Augmented” is an awful name

The name of this temperament family stomps on a well-established musical term that means something entirely different. It introduces needless ambiguity in phrases like “augmented triad”, “augmented fifth”, and “augmented seventh chord”. This temperament family should be renamed to something less confusing to allow the mainstream terminology to remain unambiguous. Bcmills (talk) 05:29, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
