Srutal tempers out [[4375/4374]] in addition to the diaschisma, and therefore [[7/4]] is represented by 15 semitones less a half octave, or five [[6/5]]s less a half octave. Diaschismic sacrifices a slight amount of accuracy by tempering out [[126/125]], but slightly reduces complexity: [[8/7]] is represented by 8 semitones less a half-octave, or we can say 7/4 is equated to four [[5/4]]s less a half octave.

Both of these can be extended naturally to the [[11-limit|11-]], [[13-limit|13-]], and [[17-limit]] by adding 176/175, 352/351, and 221/220 to the comma list in this order.
