Community poll result: 7-limit {28/27, 49/48} is the canonical extension of 5-limit {256/243}, hence *septimal blackwood* and no need of a distinct name.

'''Limmic temperaments''' are [[temperament]]s that [[temper out]] the Pythagorean limma, [[256/243]]. As a consequence, [[3/2]] is always represented by 3\5, 720 [[cent]]s assuming pure octaves. While quite sharp, this is close enough to a just fifth to serve as a fifth, and some people are fond of it.

=== 5-limit (blackwood) ===
Blackwood is the 5edo [[circle of fifths]] with an independent dimension for the harmonic 5. It can be described as the {{nowrap| 5 & 10 }} temperament. [[15edo]] is an obvious tuning.
 
The only extension to the 7-limit that makes any sense is to map the [[7/4|harmonic seventh]] to 4\5, tempering out [[28/27]], [[49/48]], and [[64/63]]. This is known as ''blacksmith'' in earlier materials, including [[Graham Breed]]'s temperament finder.
