Can You Tell These Notes Apart?

What do we do when two notes that should be the same thing just... aren't? When we've tried everything we can but they just won't line up? Well, that's where we turn to commas. Commas are, more or less, the difference between two notes that we're pretending are the same thing, which can lead to some pretty confusing situations, but fortunately we've been solving commas for centuries, if not millennia, so we've got a pretty good handle on how to smooth things out.
