>Query 1: Are Relative Harmonic Entropy, Sonance, and Cordance
equivalent?

The last two Words(?) were invented by Monzo. Sonance is not
equivalence to cordance, because sonance is dependent on musical
context and perhaps even conventions. Cordance does seem
qualitatively similar to harmonic entropy; although roughness seems
to be, in addition to harmonic entropy, a component of cordance.

>Query 2: We do not seem to have their units. If we do not have, we
should

Though arbitrary, the vertical axis ranges from 4.29 to 6.08 in the
0.6% case. If you think it would be worth my while, I will repost the
graphs with tick marks and numbers to the left of the vertical axis,
and if you wish, a grid of parallel horizontal lines across the graph.

>Query 3: Now, I find myself intensely interested in the the RHE of
the
>following:

For the following, I will assume that by 'Relative' you mean relative
to the harmonic entropy of the unison, and that for the scales in
(i), (ii), and (iii), you mean to play a continuous drone at a pitch
of 0 cents. Fine means s=.006%, ordinary means s=.012%.

(i) 22-shruti gamut

I'm assuming a range from -550 to 1950 cents against the single drone
pitch at 0 cents.
