<blockquote>That's a very fair critique, "articulation" is kinda misleading so I'll replace "articulation" with something less ambiguous.

</blockquote>Refers to deliberate harmonic shifts between different tonal axes, such as moving from a 7-limit position along a septimal kleisma to a complex 5-limit variant. Unlike micro-inflection, which suggests a subtle tonal adjustment within a single harmonic framework, axis pivoting reorients the tonal center by moving across different points within the lattice. Example: In a lattice, moving from a 7/4 interval to a nearby 5/4 by “pivoting” along a specific harmonic pathway. Different from micro-inflection, which fine-tunes pitch without moving to a new tonal axis.<blockquote>2: TRGs</blockquote>A smooth, seamless progression between adjacent intervals within a tuning system. Imagine moving from one note to another in a ~~just intonation (~~JI) lattice, where the ear perceives a gradual “flow” rather than a sharp jump. TRG’s function could be illustrated using a 7-limit tuning where adjacent intervals (like a 5/4 and 6/5) connect smoothly, different from tonality flux (Partch’s term) in that TRG can apply across single or multiple intervals in a chain, while tonality flux specifically addresses voice leading and micro-adjustments within narrow harmonic confines.
