28edt divides the third harmonic into 28 equal parts of 67.9 cents each. It is the simplest edt which intelligibly doubles the Anti-BP harmonic chain[clarification needed].
Theory
From a no-twos perspective, 28edt has a nearly-pure 5th harmonic (which tritave-reduces to 5/3), with 41/28 being a continued fraction convergent to log3(5). It poorly approximates harmonic 7, but has an acceptable approximation of harmonic 11, so it makes sense to consider it as a 3.5.11 subgroup system. In the 3.5.11 subgroup, it supports the deneb temperament, which equates 3 flat 11/9s to 5/3, and the delta centauri temperament, which equates 9 near-just 5/3s tritave-reduced to 11/9 (although delta centauri is a microtemperament and larger EDTs like 71edt offer much better tunings of it). 56edt rectifies the approximation of the 7th harmonic.
28edt has a very accurate 8th harmonic, and as such, one step is very close to every third step of 53edo, and the tritave-reduced 8th harmonic 8/3 and tritave-reduced 8th subharmonic 9/8 are equally well-approximated. It tempers out the schisma in the 8.3.5 subgroup, albeit a really strange tuning due to being a multiple of 4edt and being index-2 in BP. It can also be used for the 3.5.8.11 extension of deneb temperament equating +5 generators to 8/3.
Similar to how 14edt can be seen as 9edo with significantly stretched octaves (~23 ¢), 28edt can be seen as 18edo with the same stretched octave. Note that using the stretched octave will map 8/1 to an inconsistent approximation rather than the aforementioned accurate 8/1. Considering that 29edt is a compressed 18edo, neither 28edt or 29edt are truly equivalent to 18edo (these two basically correspond to 18edo's dual fifths).
