Temperaments
In compton temperament, this interval and 3/2 are tempered together, because the pythagorean comma 531441/524288 is tempered out.
If this interval itself is taken as a comma to be tempered out, it leads to the malicious temperament, and the interval can be called the malicious comma (the origin of the "malicious compliance" pun from that page).
