::::: This allows us to have well-ordered names for the scale. If I were to build this ability into my system instead, I would add a prefix for 243/242 that begins with a different letter. I'm at a loss for what I would use because 243/242 doesn't have any association to me as a chroma. All my other prefixes are associated with a 'known' meaning.

:::::: Believe it or not, I'm actually willing to work with you to try and improve our respective systems to where they're compatible, and I tend to think in some of the same terms when it comes to EDOs and the intervals that they approximate. I do actually like the idea of prefixing the 121/64 from 243/128, and since the rastma (243/242) does have an association as a chroma to me, I think we should have a conversation about this. For starters, I think the rastma makes perfect sense when you consider it as being almost exactly one third of a meantone comma, with a stack of three rastmas only falling short of the the meantone comma by a [[parimo]]. If there are other temperaments that relate the rastma to the meantone comma in different ways, then we have a rastmic-syntonic equivalence continuum in just the same way that we have a [[syntonic-chromatic equivalence continuum]]. Does that make sense? --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 03:21, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
