Clarification on this: I meant to say "Neidhardt's and Sorge's published
systems that do have E-G# wider than Ab-C."
That's where a crux of that matter is. Having established the points
where C and E are, is the G#/Ab going to be higher than, exactly at, or
lower than the midpoint of the remaining distance? There are some
Neidhardt examples of each type.
Carry on.
