42edo has almost 50% relative error on harmonics 3/1 and 5/1. This means that whether one stretches or compresses the octave, either way it will improve 42edo’s approximations of JI, but in opposite directions.
This table provides a detailed comparison of three stretched- and three compressed-octave tunings for 42edo.
