=== Naming 3-step scales' step ratios ===
Analogously to 2-step scales including mosses, scales with three step sizes L > M > S, including [[MV3]] scales, can also be uniquely characterized by their L:M:S ratios. Here TAMNAMS names L/M, then M/S ratios separately: for example, 21edo [[diasem]] (5L 2M 2s, LMLSLMLSL or its inverse) has a ratio of L:M:S = 3:2:1, so we name it "soft basic".
