RE: harmonic entropy

In many ways, it deviates strongly from that shape. Particularly, the
"levels" don't line up at all -- rather, what lines up are levels of equal
tenney complexity. You can make a "tenney tree" -- that would be better.

Can you formalize "increasingly dropping the right-hand side of the
iterations"?

Is this supposed to sound special in some way?
