784/783, the biminorisma, is a 29-limit interval, and is the distance between the intervals 29/28 and 28/27 (thus having the S-expression S28). The name comes from that 7/6 and 29/24 are separated by 29/28 and as are 36/29 and 9/7, where 9/7 is 28/27 below 4/3 and 7/6 is 28/27 above 9/8, therefore, tempering this comma adds the prime 29 to the 2.3.7 subgroup with very high accuracy, yielding thirds obviously distinct flavours of thirds, as a third-tone lies between the two minor thirds (and hence the two major thirds). Importantly, this comma was not named the "bimajorisma" to further distance from association with an unrelated temperament named Bisupermajor.

Trivia

A form of this temperament being used in the song "Into The Spoogalaxy!" by members of the XA Discord server for the 2023 Server vs. Server music competition, from which was invented a light-hearted alternative name "spoogalactic comma" thus implying a "spoogalactic temperament", but it is recommended to use the formal names "Biminoric" and "Biminorisma", the name proposed prior by Scott Dakota, who had also spent time using the rank 3 temperament prior to suggesting names for the comma (of which "Biminorisma" was favoured by other members of the XA Discord).
