:::::::: I'm perfectly aware of the fact that two "semitones" add up to more than a "whole tone" in this system- the same problem on a different level, as they are ''still'' called "semitones" in spite of this- but we seem to have a way of getting around that in this system by means of the double sharp and double flat accidentals... I guess you could say that I want to come up with a similar solution for these "quartertones". Alternatively, we should not only mention that the "quartertones" aren't exactly "quartertones", but also that the "semitones" aren't exactly "semitones"... --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 21:40, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
