Theory
The equal temperament tempers out the commas 126/125, 1029/1024, 6144/6125 and 243/242, making it useful for various purposes. It is an excellent tuning for starling, the 7-limit planar temperament tempering out 126/125; valentine, which also tempers out 1029/1024; and cuckoo, tempering out 126/125 and 243/242. With 185cff, the val ⟨185 293 429 519 640 686], it makes for a first-class tuning of the 13-limit miraculous temperament.
