Compared to 36edo, 101ed7’s harmonics are almost exactly the same, but it has a slightly better 3/1, 7/1 and 13/1, and a slightly worse 2/1 and 5/1 versus 36edo.

Overall this means 36edo is still better in the [[5-limit]], but 101ed7 better in the [[13-limit]]. And the [[7-limit]] and [[11-limit]] could go either way.

36edo’s 5-limit dominance flips on its head, though, if one approaches it as a [[dual-n|dual-5]] tuning. In that case, the fact that 101ed7’s 5/1 is closer to 50% relative error is actually a ''good'' thing, because it means the error on the worse of the two 5/1s is less.
