Pronunciation & Spelling
Only consequential /ˌkɑnsəˈkwɛntʃəl/ rhymes exactly with the target's stressed /ɛntʃəl/ ending. Sequential, essential, and potential are spelling lookalikes that end in -ential but are usually pronounced with final /ʃəl/, not /tʃəl/, so they do not rhyme with inconsequential as pronounced here.
