Since 1029/1024 is a relatively small comma (8.4 cents), and the error is distributed over several intervals, slendric is quite an accurate temperament (approximating many intervals within 1 or 2 cents).

The disadvantage, if you want to think of it that way, is that approximations to the 5th harmonic do not occur until you go a large number of generators away from the unison. In other words, the 5th harmonic must have a large [[complexity]]. Possible extensions of slendric to the full 7 limit include [[mothra]] (tempering out 81/80) and [[rodan]] (even more complex).
