: 11-limit tertiaseptal should be decanonicalized. Tertiaseptal has three 11-limit extensions: 109 & 140, 140 & 171, and 171 & 202. Perhaps, the canonicity of 171 & 202 could be argued on the basis that the 7-limit optimum is very close to 171; however, compared to the absolute supremacy of the 7-limit temperament, this 11-limit extension is plain bad. ''Tertia'' and ''tertiaseptia'' are bad-tasted names so we might wanna reconsider these names too.

Currently, the other extensions are called ''tertia'' and ''tertiaseptia'', which, despite the confusing form (sounds like commas rather than temps), suggests that the extension 171 & 202 might be ''septia''.
