5L 3s can be seen as a [[Warped diatonic|warped diatonic scale]], because it has one extra small step compared to diatonic ([[5L 2s]]).

'Father' is sometimes also used to denote 5L 3s, but it's a misnomer, as [[father]] is technically an abstract [[regular temperament]] (although a very inaccurate one), not a generator range. There are father tunings which generate 3L 5s. A more correct but still not quite correct name would be 'father[8]' or 'father octatonic'. "Father" is also vague regarding the number of notes, because optimal generators for it also generate [[3L 2s]].

* 13edo has characteristically small 1-mossteps of about 185¢. It is uniformly compressed 12edo, so it has distorted versions of non-diatonic 12edo scales. It essentially has the best [[11/8]] out of all hypohard tunings.

It also makes rising fifths (733., a perfect 5-mosstep) and falling fifths (666., a major 4-mosstep) almost equally off from a just perfect fifth. 18edo is also more suited for conventionally jazz styles due to its 6-fold symmetry.

The range of oneirotonic tunings of step ratio between 6:5 and 3:2 is closely related to [[porcupine]] temperament; these tunings equate three oneirotonic large steps to a diatonic perfect fourth, i.e. they equate the oneirotonic large step to a [[porcupine]] generator. The chord 10:11:13 is very well approximated in 29edo.

23edo oneiro combines the sound of neogothic tunings like [[46edo]] and the sounds of "superpyth" and "semaphore" scales. This is because 23edo oneirotonic has a large step of 208.7¢, same as [[46edo]]'s neogothic major second, and is both a warped [[22edo]] [[superpyth]] [[diatonic]] and a warped [[24edo]] [[semaphore]] [[semiquartal]] (and both nearby scales are [[superhard]] MOSes).

Beyond that, it's a question of which intervals you want to favor. [[53edo]] has an essentially perfect [[3/2]], [[58edo]] gives the lowest overall error for the Barbados triads 10:13:15 and 26:30:39, while [[63edo]] does the same for the basic 4:6:7 triad. You could in theory go up to [[83edo]] if you want to favor the [[7/4]] above everything else, but beyond that, general accuracy drops off rapidly and you might as well be playing equal pentatonic.
