Equave vs Octave
I think “generalizing” octave to equave was not so valuable. It seems to complicate things, also because the equave article is not very informative besides telling us who coined the term. To us, it may be clear that the octave is the prototypical equave, but not to others. --Xenwolf (talk) 16:09, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
