The irrationality inherent to equal divisions of the octave has been recognized since antiquity, most commonly &lt;/ins&gt;through &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;proofs such as the irrationality of √2. For example, if there were an exact just intonation fraction corresponding to the 600-cent tritone, its numerator and denominator would be required to satisfy mutually incompatible conditions — [[wikipedia:Square root of 2#Proof by infinite descent|being both even and coprime]]. Similarly, if a stack of pure fifths (3/2) were to close exactly at the octave, the resulting comma {{Monzo|-X Y}} would have to equal 1. In this number, numerator X must be a power of 2 and the denominator Y a power of 3, thus implying the existence of an even power of 3, which is not possible.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

However, descriptions of the scale, as they are presented in the video, contain several internal inconsistencies. The underlying structure of the grid, as mentioned above, corresponds to [[14ado]], which by definition contains 14 distinct steps per octave rather than 12, thus conflicting with the initial claims that the scale is 12-&lt;/ins&gt;note &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;or is a replacement for 12edo. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

This omission appears to be motivated by an attempt to align the number of pitches with the 12-note framework of standard Western notation, as the presentation maps the resulting tones onto conventional note names. However, the rationale for excluding specifically 243 &lt;/ins&gt;Hz &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;and its octave displacement, as opposed to any other member of the sequence, &lt;/ins&gt;is &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;not explicitly addressed.
