::: Yes, A1 = M2 - m2, so A1 isn't needed. Sure, we could have all three. If we have only two, M2 and m2 are the most useful for finding your way around a microtonal guitar. For example, hand a guitarist a 31-edo guitar tuned EADGBE and say M2 = 5 frets and m2 = 3 frets, and they can figure it out pretty quickly.

::: And yes, for certain edos like 6-edo, it's not that helpful. But for most edos it's very useful, so we might as well include it for all of them. Even if the M2 is not the same as the best approximation of 9/8. Because M2 is always the distance between the best approximation of 4/3 and the best approximation of 3/2. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 07:34, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

:::: The reason why I favor A1 over M2 is that addition is easier than subtraction. Once you have A1 and m2, M2 is obvious; not so the other way around. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 06:49, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
: To all: Inthar has got [[Template:Infobox ET]] constructed and has implemented it(!) in many edo pages. Let's move on to [[Template talk:Infobox ET]]. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 06:49, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
