* Approximates the [[224/135|Marvelous Major Sixth]], and as such...
:* Is the narrowest interval that can reasonably be used in Western-Classical-based harmony and Neo-Medieval harmony as a type of Major Sixth
* Is the closest approximation of 22edo's Lesser Major Sixth in this system, and thus...
:* Can be used in Faux-Classical-based melodic and harmonic gestures reminiscent of those found in that system, albeit with caveats, since such moves on their own don't work the exact same way in this system

* Approximates the [[5/3|Classic Major Sixth]], and as such...
:* Is one of the staples of both melodic and harmonic motion in general, and in particular...
::* It is a staple interval in Western-Classical-based Diatonic scales
:* Readily occurs as the distance between two notes in a single chord in Western-Classical-based polypedal harmony
:* It differs from the Pythagorean Major Sixth in that...
::* It is one of four imperfect consonances in this system, rendering it extremely suitable for use in a spaced out Tonic chord in Western-Classical-based polypedal harmony
::* Is surprisingly ill-suited for use as the interval between the Tonic and the Major Sixth scale degree above it in a fixed-pitch Bass-Up Diatonic system due to it creating a wolf fifth in a less-than-ideal location within the main scale
* Is reachable through stacking six of this system's approximation of the low complexity Undecimal Neutral Third and octave-reducing
* Is the closest approximation of 19edo's Major Sixth found in this system, and thus...
:* Can be used in melodic and harmonic gestures reminiscent of those found in that system, since such moves on their own don't work the exact same way in this system
