So, where pure-octaves 28edo has a flat fifth with 16.2{{c}} error and a sharp fifth with 28.6{{c}} error, 89ed9 instead has a flat fifth with 21.4{{c}} error and a sharp fifth with 21.4{{c}} error.

21.4{{c}} error is slightly worse than [[5edo]]'s best fifth but slightly better than [[23edo]]'s.

Some might consider this fifth too bad to use, in which case 89ed9 would be a downgrade from pure-octaves 28edo.
