: Prime 47 in higher-limit Vincenzo is literally identified with 3/2.

: "deleting one of the highest-limit temperaments on the whole wiki seems like a bad idea" this would be true if the temperament was even remotely reasonable. It's basically only useful for detempers, in which case, someone doing a detemper of one of those edos doesn't need this temperament to do it, because they will just detemper the edo. To put into perspective how useless it is, tempering out [[25/24]] ([[dicot]]) is much more fruitful for detempers, because it meaningfully describes certain JI scales that have 5/4 and 6/5 subtend the same number of scalesteps, such as a generator sequence. --[[User:Godtone|Godtone]] ([[User talk:Godtone|talk]]) 20:39, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
