Modally, the least to most ''entropic'' scale degrees are (if a scale degree is highly entropic, the modes that have this interval as major and minor respectively are roughly a 50-50 split):
Modally, the least to most ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(information_theory) entropic]'' scale degrees are:
* 2 and 7 (equally)
* 2 and 7 (equally): .99 bits
* 4 and 5 (equally)
* 4 and 5 (equally): .86 bits
* 3 and 6 (equally)
* 3 and 6 (equally): .59 bits
(if a scale degree is highly entropic it tends to be the most informative on average; the modes that have this interval as major and minor respectively are roughly a 50-50 split).
 
This tells us that unlike in the diatonic scale, thirds and sixths are the ''least'' informative in distinguishing orgone modes.
