:::::::::: Okay, but why is "comparing temperaments" in that manner the chief purpose for this?

== Rename of undecimal porcupine == | |||
I've suggested some of these names in the wiki channel on Discord, but it got buried under other discussion: | |||
- porcupinefowl (the opposite of fish, from "neither fish nor fowl") | |||
- equisuperparticular porcupine (from equating 13/12 through 10/9 equally) | |||
- s-porcupine or sporcupine (from tempering out consecutive s-expressions) | |||
