m Not a typo, count the numbers. It's actually a 9L -2s scale, not a 9L 2s scale, but the linking system doesn't allow that.
m Change spaces in scale specifications to non-breaking spaces to comply with the standard for other pages

However, due to the size of the edo, this does not cover the whole gamut. You can expand it to the [[7L 5s]] mapping, but this gives octaves a moderate downward slant.

Keeping the same generator but setting the period to the quarter octave gives you a near equal [[4L 8s]] scale that keeps octaves closer to horizontal and makes chords easy to play

To maximise your range without skipping notes and keep octaves close to horizontal involves an inverted [[9L 2s]] scale which is not particularly intuitive to play.
