 If we take a MOS scale, and adjust one or more its notes up or down by some ''other'' consistent interval besides a chroma, we instead obtain an inflected MOS scale. This process is called '''MOS inflection'''.
-A scale constructed in this way lacks many useful structural properties of a MODMOS, most importantly [[epimorphism]]. Compared to a MODMOS, it also preserves less of the character of the original MOS scale, which could be useful or detrimental depending on one’s goals in making the scale.
+A scale being a MODMOS guarantees a number of useful characteristics, most importantly [[epimorphism]]. A MOS inflection ''might'' sometimes have these properties, but it often doesn't. Compared to a MODMOS, it also typically preserves less of the 'character' of the original MOS scale, which could be useful or detrimental depending on one’s goals in making the scale.
