*[[27edo|27]]: Worse than both 12- and 22edo for 5-limit. The fifth sucks. It is distinct in 7-limit tho, but that is like thinking 0.1 is better represented as 1 than 0. There are beatings here and there. It really needs compression. The fact that [[53edo]] is good indicates that 26- and 27edo are probably bad. | *[[27edo|27]]: Worse than both 12- and 22edo for 5-limit. The fifth sucks.

*[[31edo|31]]: Ideal for pure-octave [[meantone]], combining lots of 11-limit extensions in a single tuning. Also [[valentine]] and [[miracle]]. IMO the best meantone EDO. For other temperaments its flat fifth may be a drawback. | *[[31edo|31]]: Ideal for pure-octave [[meantone]], combining lots of 11-limit extensions in a single tuning. The meantone flat fifth makes its neutral thirds close to [[11/9]] (tho there is still the JI subgroup problem). Also [[valentine]] and [[miracle]]. IMO the best meantone EDO.
