This is not a scale! This is just a guide to see what a good name for an interval would be under WBN (note that a lot of the boundaries here aren't perfectly exact).

If multiple intervals fall into the same category they can be distinguished by "small", "medium", "large" etc. For example, a scale with both 95c and 105c could distinguish them as small and large minor seconds.

Sometimes using "small" and "large" is preferable over arto- and tendo- interval names.
