Terminology
Despite being approximated by the major seventh in systems like septimal meantone, and even being called the septimal grave major seventh by some musicians, 28/15 is a diminished octave in just intonation notation systems such as Sagittal notation, Helmholtz-Ellis notation and the Functional Just System, viewed as the Pythagorean diminished octave (4096/2187) altered by 5120/5103.
