618edo is excellent in the no-threes subgroups. It tempers out the jacobin comma in the no-threes 13-limit, 14875/14872 in the no-threes 17-limit and 2432/2431 and 5491/5488 in the no-threes 19-limit.

The fact that the jacobin comma is the only one notable among these, suggests just how 3/2-centric music is, even in the xenharmonic practices.
