Move to Tenney norm

This complexity is defined as a norm, which is (mostly) a stronger condition than being a height function. In fact, the whole reason it is useful is because it is a norm, not a height. For this reason, the title should be either "Tenney norm", or "Tenney harmonic distance", because that's what it was called originally. – Sintel🎏 (talk) 18:18, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Agreed. --Cmloegcmluin (talk) 19:46, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Agreed. If "norm" is more commonly used than "harmonic distance" (for the Tenney case but also in general), then "norm" should be given priority despite Tenney calling it "harmonic distance". --Fredg999 (talk) 21:53, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
