618edo is consistent to the 7-odd-limit, but harmonic 3 is about halfway between its steps. Nonetheless, as every other step of 1236edo, 618edo is excellent in approximating harmonics 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 17, making it suitable for a 2.9.5.7.11.13.17 subgroup interpretation, where the equal temperament notably tempers out 2601/2600, 4096/4095, 5832/5831, 6656/6655, 9801/9800, and 10648/10647. With a reasonable approximation of 19, it further tempers out 2926/2925, 5985/5984, and 6175/6174.

Since 618 factors into 2 × 3 × 103, 618edo has subset edos 2, 3, 6, 103, 206, and 309. 1236edo, which doubles it, provides a good correction for harmonic 3.
