Thus, by these rules, it cannot line up if it results in any other harmonic/interval.

An interesting thing to note is that after the 5-note chord, the amount of times that the tones line up rises linearly by 2x.

To show an example of this method with the added reference, I'll show how 9:11:13 works here.

This is a term that I'm coining to describe certain patterns or outliers within a series of chords or a scale(s) based off of their combination/difference tones.

For example, here's [[:File:Erv Wilson's Fibonnaci Progression.png|an example progression using a Fibonnaci sequence from Erv Wilson's letter to McLaren]]. We can look at the tones of these chords and see whether we can notice anything interesting:
