-A [[temperament]] is said to be '''efficient''' if it achieves accurate approximations of many [[JI]] intervals without undue [[complexity]]. It's generally regarded as a desirable property of a temperament. Efficient temperaments tend to have low [[badness]]–in fact, badness is a metric of efficiency.
+A [[temperament]] is said to be '''efficient''' if it achieves accurate approximations of many [[JI]] intervals without undue [[complexity]]. It's generally regarded as a desirable property of a temperament. Efficient temperaments are expected have low or very low [[badness]] as badness is defined in general as the product of some kind of [[error|(tuning) error]] metric and some kind of ([[mapping]]) complexity metric, that is, as a metric of inefficiency.
