Never mind. I realized as I was trying to fix some of it that "direct mapping" makes sense as a synonym for "patent interval". Sorry about the confusion. Still, I did manage to reword that opening sentence a bit. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 00:08, 19 January 2021 (UTC) | Never mind.

== Distinguish between patent interval and direct mapping == | |||
To reduce confusion: the ''patent interval'' for an ideal interval is obtained by ''direct mapping''. So these things are not synonymous. You use the word ''patent interval'' to distinguish one interval from alternative renditions of the same ideal interval. Maybe the ''direct mapping'' concept is much more productive and the term ''patent interval'' may be dispensable but the latter is more obvious (to musicians) than the first one. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 08:16, 19 January 2021 (UTC) | |||
