The 57b val has a fifth so sharp that it would sound more like a circulating temperament of [[5edo]]. The sharp fifth does have the feature that six of them add up to 12/1, which octave-reduces to the [[Patent val|patent]] fifth, and the diatonic mapping does provide easy access to the patent fifth (just up and left of the sharp fifth), so on a hypothetical XL-sized Lumatone having enough keys to avoid skipping notes, it would be a reasonable mapping despite giving an extremely hard [[5L 2s]] scale.
The 57b val has a fifth so sharp that using it to play a pentatonic scale would sound more like a circulating temperament of [[5edo]] than a pentatonic scale of [[Meantone]], [[Superpyth]], or any of their relatives. The sharp fifth does have the feature that six of them add up to 12/1, which octave-reduces to the [[Patent val|patent]] fifth, and the diatonic mapping does provide easy access to the patent fifth (just up and left of the sharp fifth), so on a hypothetical XL-sized Lumatone having enough keys to avoid skipping notes, it would be a reasonable mapping despite giving an extremely hard [[5L 2s]] scale and nearly equalized [[2L 3s]] scale.
