Another interesting comparison I've mentioned before on the list is how 9:7 sounds played with a P5 compared to playing with a M6 (by which I mean the P5 or M6 built upon the same root as the 9:7, and played with that root). 9:7 nearly bisects 5:3, by the way. >I'd never thought about this before, but it is so true. It has that >"square" feeling I always associate with the 3:2. "Square" is also a good choice of adjectives.
