'xcuse I think I got the point of your question just in the second
reading: The twelve fifths not only cumulate to meet the octav (more
precise: five octaves) but also represent each by each one single note
on the keyboard:
B-E-A-D-G-C-F-Bb(=A#)-Eb(=D#)-Ab(=G#)-Db(=C#)-Gb(=F#)-Cb(=B*) , so
making them smaller or larger means to change these notes (their
equation on the keyboard)
