In adding freedom you may be sacrificing a 'safety' of familiarity, tonality, simplicity of materials, etc. It is a dangerous and rewarding world out there. Another consideration is that unless an effort is made to restrict the range of tonalities, the numerators and denominators grow with time and become unwieldy and eventually impossible to manage. If no such effort is made, they grow linearly. One possible solution is nanotempering--using an equal temperament so high it cannot be distinguished from JI. | In adding freedom you may be sacrificing a 'safety' of familiarity, tonality, simplicity of materials, etc. It is a dangerous and rewarding world out there.
