'''Why so many similar temperaments?'''
'''Why does the same temperament appear multiple times?'''


Some temperament names represent different but closely related tunings from a shared progenitor temperament, which should be noted when looking at higher-limit behaviours of more simple temperaments.
Some temperaments are good at approximating a variety of different subgroups. For example, magic is good at approximating both the 7-limit and the 11-limit, so it is listed under both.
 
It would be like if there were a table of pokemon, and one row said “cute pokemon”, and one row said “electric pokemon”: Pikachu would be listed under both.
 
This is like that.
