10-EDN is similar to 7-EDO in that its step size is roughly 1/7 of an octave, therefore roughly corresponding to the diatonic scale, but with warped, equal-size steps. However, the octave is stretched, which simultaneously helps the extremely flat fifth of 7-EDO.

20-EDN is a doubling of 10-EDN with intervals closer to semitones.

17-EDN is very close to 12-EDO but with slightly sharp semitones (101.84 cents). This causes the octave to be far too sharp (1222.05 cents; essentially double a Pythagorean large tritone) and gives it a rather pleasant sharp fifth of 712.86 cents.

24-EDN has third tones so far sharp of 17-EDO that it becomes a stretched 50-ED8 (50\24 is 3606.74 cents). However, 43\24 is essentially the 6th harmonic (1514.83+1586.965=3101.79 cents)..
